Mad Peak offers a range of timed UTV rentals — including 2-hour, half-day (4-hour), full-day (8-hour), 12-hour, and multi-day (two- to six-day) options — that allow riders to begin directly on the trail without trailering. Rentals are designed for riders who want fast access to mountain ridges, hidden valleys, historic mining towns and scenic overlooks across the Northern Black Hills.
Each rental package emphasizes freedom and convenience: customers can turn a key and ride into forests, ghost towns and canyons, with options to camp, picnic, or follow mapped route suggestions. For longer itineraries, Mad Peak promotes multi-day exploration that highlights local landmarks and backcountry trails; one extended offer references starting access from Steel Wheel Trading Post for northern Black Hills routes.
Beyond UTVs, Mad Peak also offers a Vanderhall Venice three-wheeled, open-air vehicle for scenic drives along routes such as Spearfish Canyon and roadways leading toward Devil’s Tower. That vehicle blends vintage styling with modern handling for those seeking a different on-road experience.
