MNDNR Administered State Forest Roads

Roads designated by the Commissioner of Natural Resource to provide access to lands administered by the Division of Forestry. These roads are generally open and used for resource management and public recreation. Some segments are cooperatively managed with county land departments and local road authorities. State Forest Roads are classified as either system roads or minimum maintenance roads (MMR’s). System roads are generally capable of supporting low clearance highway licensed vehicles. MMR’s are maintained as needed and funding allows, generally passable by high clearance vehicle, and are posted as “Road may be impassable. Travel at your own risk”. Resource Management Routes (RMR’s) are non-designated forest routes used for resource management purposes. Some portions of roads and routes are dual designated as recreation trails.
