Fat Tire Fest 2025

Southern Illinois Fat Tire Festival (FTF) happening again for the 21st year, one of the best MTB events in the entire MidWest!

This year’s event goes down October 17-19, 2025, at the one and only Camp Ondessonk located in Ozark, Illinois right in the middle of the beautiful Shawnee National Forest. We have miles and miles of great riding for all levels of riders from mellow flow to rugged all mountain boulder strewn rowdiness.

The Midwest’s all-inclusive mountain bike weekend with tons of fun riding; both professionally guided and self-led, amazing food and drink, awesome tree-house accommodations, and tons of outdoor adventures Friday, Saturday and Sunday. Visit www.ftf.bike for all the details and to register today.
