Honda Hills MX

Thornville, OH

Location

Thornville, OH

Terrain

Natural-terrain GP-style motocross track set in forested central Ohio hills, with a mix of loose dirt and hard-pack surfaces and meaningful elevation change (roughly 960 to 1,025 feet). Predominantly intermediate-level terrain with beginner-friendly sections and some steeper, more advanced features. Minimal rocks and no sand. The property also includes a flat/dirt circle track and miles of single-track woods trails.

Best for

Intermediate riders looking for a natural-terrain track with elevation and variety, plus beginners who can safely ride the track at their own pace; great for full-weekend trips thanks to on-site camping and a family-friendly, community vibe.

What riders say

Honda Hills is one of Ohio's true motocross landmarks, an iconic facility originally founded in 1969 and sitting in the rolling hills of central Ohio between Zanesville and Newark. After being purchased in 2021, the new ownership has poured real work into restoring the motocross track, the dirt circle track, and the amphitheater, and riders have responded warmly. The natural-terrain layout takes full advantage of the property's elevation changes, with riders calling it one of the best tracks they have raced on and praising the facility's potential as an epic place to ride and hang out.

The vibe is community-first: racing, camping, food vendors, and making memories with friends and family are at the heart of the experience. The motocross track is complemented by miles of woods trails and a flat track, giving riders plenty of variety in one destination. With ongoing improvements and a steady calendar of race days, Honda Hills has become a welcoming, family-friendly home base for motocross in the region and a natural fit for The MX Factory's clinics.
