Do you need a MN State Horse Trail Pass?

Wednesday, March 21st, 2007

Greg and I have checked out the DNR website to see how the online system works. Well, it’s a bit clunky but it does work and it will save you a trip to the license center. Just remember - you must have the pass in your possession when you are any state trails!

Here’s the link to the website: http://www.dnr.state.mn.us/licenses/agents.html

After completing the registration process, the state will mail you your trail pass in 7-10 days!
