The scenic beauty of the area brings all-terrain vehicles (ATV), and snowmobiling enthusiasts throughout the region and state to the City of Emily.
Snowmobiling and ATV use are beloved pastimes for many Emily residents and are dynamic components of local tourism. Via the DNR trail route, running north and south through town, riders have access to hundreds of trail miles throughout the region. Designated parking facilities have been established within the downtown core and the city has authorized ATV use on several roads within the City of Emily.
The use of snowmobiles, ATVs, and OHVs, have long been a part of the culture in the City of Emily. Motorized recreation offers opportunities throughout all seasons and contributes to the local tourism industry. Recreational trails are an important aspect of the city's recreation system. The snowmobile trail network is maintained and operated by the Emily-Outing snowbirds. Currently the organization maintains and grooms 100 miles of trails throughout the area. Trails traverse through private property and are part of a larger network of motorized trail options. The Minnesota Department of Natural Resources has established snowmobile and ATV regulations for the operation of motorized vehicles on public rights of way. ATV trails are very popular in the county-managed areas within the city.
