Snowmobiling in Mammoth Lakes

Bring your snowmobile to Mammoth Lakes or rent one from a local outfitter and hit the trails on your own time:

  • DJ’s Snowmobile Adventures offers one-hour snowpark rentals, the best option for families with limited time. Rentals include a helmet, instruction, and practice before hitting the trails.
  • If you want to spend more time on the trails, we recommend booking a half or full-day rental with Sierra Engines. Rentals include trail maps, helmets, and instruction. 

Where to Go on Your Own

Once you have found the right snowmobile rental, it’s time to hit the trails. Park your vehicle at Shady Rest Park off Sawmill Road and access over 80 miles of flat-groomed trails. 

Start your exploration on the A Trail and use the orange diamonds and intersection signs to navigate your route. Combine the A, B, H, and G trails for a scenic loop and ride through Jeffrey pine forests, domeland, and mountain views. Discover even more snowmobiling trails nearby along Highway 203!

Make sure to check the current avalanche conditions before heading out for the day!
