Built for Every Skill Level
The 2026 event offers experiences for everyone from first-time off-road drivers to seasoned adventurers. The Foundational Trail Series gives newer Sprinter, Ford Transit, INEOS Grenadier, and overland vehicle owners the opportunity to learn vehicle preparation, tire management, trail etiquette and off-road driving fundamentals before heading onto the trail with experienced guides.
More experienced attendees can explore at their own pace through the OOTR Adventure Challenge, featuring exclusive routes, waypoints, obstacles and points of interest powered by onX Offroad.
Education remains at the heart of the event. Throughout the week, attendees can participate in hands-on sessions covering recovery and winching, vehicle preparation, navigation, tires, suspension, drivetrain systems, field repairs, responsible recreation and more.
The schedule also includes mountain biking, yoga, partner displays, live product demonstrations and opportunities to connect directly with the people behind many of the products used throughout the overland community.
When the sun goes down, the community experience continues with hosted dinners, live music, themed evenings and the Electric Mirage, a special after-dark trail experience combining a night run with lights and music in the desert.
“Ocotillo on the Rocks is about giving people the confidence to use their vehicles, explore responsibly and become part of a community that shares the same passion for adventure.” — John Brindell, CEO, Agile Offroad
