Indiana DNR requires either an annual trail pass ($20) or a one-day permit ($5) for mountain bike riding at state properties. This includes trails labeled above "beginner" level. Two 2019 DINO courses, Brown County and Versailles, are included. Potato Creek, although a DNR property, is labeled as "beginner" and thus is exempt from the requirement.

DINO suggests that any rider who plans to ride in an Indiana state park or state forest, four or more times per year, purchase an annual pass. This would cover any race days and any training / practice rides.

Riders need to obtain their own permit or pass. DINO does not plan to check each riders pass or permit; the rider will take the responsibility.
