Brazos Valley Off-Road Ranch (BVORR) is approximately 200 acres located in Bryan/College Station, Texas. The site was formally owned and mined for gravel by Gifford Hill Corporation in the 1960's into the 1970's. Back then the regulatory agencies did not require land reclamation. The land has many pits and large hills (Bad Lands). About seven years ago Steve Opersteny the current land owner began to work on purchasing the property from the company that bought out Gifford Hill as well as adjacent land owners with a vision that the former gravel pits or bad lands could be put to use as a off-road facility. Steve Opersteny enlisted the help of Jim Taylor the president of the Bryan/College Station Chapter of The Texas Four Wheel Drive (TX4WD) Organization to begin to create a series of challenging trails on the property. Currently several local clubs hold work days to scout out and open new trails.

The park is currently open to the general public in conjuction with the scheduled meetings of the Bryan College Station chapter of the TX4WD Organization at 2:00 pm on the second and fourth Sunday of the month. The park is also open for pre scheduled events organized by recognized clubs.

For general questions about park operations please contact Steve Opersteny, operstenys@hotmail.com, or #979-846-1592 between the hours of 7pm and 9pm.
