Snowmobile Program
Thousands
of miles of maintained snowmobile trails throughout Maine
are available to followers of this exciting and popular
winter sport.
Many of the trails interconnect and adventurous snowmobilers can travel
extensively, even beyond Maine's borders into Canada and New Hampshire. This
growing network of trails is the product of a cooperative program between
snowmobile clubs, municipalities, private landowners, and the Maine Bureau
of Parks and Lands.
Additional information and trail maps of some areas are available from the
Off Road Vehicles Division of the Bureau of Parks and Lands. Contact White
Mountain National Forest Ranger Headquarters in Bethel (207-824-2134) for
information about trails there. Local chambers of commerce in many areas have
information about local trail systems and accomodations.

site for current conditions.
