On Alasan's track

The route moves through bamboo forest, Gorilla Cave, river terrain and mud. A training track gives you time to practise the controls before the main ride. The 450cc route adds the section Alasan calls the handicap section.

Expect wet, uneven ground and clothes that need changing afterwards. Ask the guide about any section you are unsure about before setting off.

Common questions

Can I join if I have never ridden an ATV?

Alasan provides a safety briefing and a training track. Tell the booking team and guide that you are a first-time rider so they can confirm a suitable option before you ride.

Can children drive a Tandem ATV?

The minimum listed driving age is 16. Tandem passengers must be aged 5-60; children ride with an adult, subject to operator approval. Share each child's age when booking.

Do I need a driving licence?

The information reviewed does not establish a licence requirement. Confirm it with Alasan before booking, and bring ID for registration.

Can I book a shorter track?

This guide covers the full Alasan 250cc and 450cc routes. Ask about current short-track options separately; their duration and inclusions may differ.
