Recreation in Wilderness

Wilderness Areas provide excellent recreational opportunities for all America's citizens. Research shows that more than 12 million people visit Wilderness Areas each year, on their own or with a guide to hike, backpack, camp, climb mountains, ride horses, hunt, fish, ski, raft, canoe, take pictures, view wildlife and stargaze.

In short, most types of recreational uses are allowed in designated Wilderness Areas, except those needing mechanical transport or motorized equipment, such as motorboats, cars, trucks, off-road vehicles, bicycles and snowmobiles (exceptions include wheelchairs and uses for subsistence activities in Alaska Wildernesses).
