Trails in Southern Maine

Alden Hill

Alden Hill is located in Gorham on the University of Southern Maine Campus. It has very fast rolling technical single track with some hill climbs. There will also be a race held here sometime in July or August this year. Check my races page for more information. Rating A. Advanced Riders will love this trail.

Sunday River

For those downhillers and freeriders out there, Sunday River is the place to be. Miles of lift accessed trails. Check out Flatn'em. Great fast trail, high speed corners, drop offs, and gives you all you will need in three miles. Take lift #6 to the top and follow the signs. Lift tickets usually run $20-$25 dollars. Rating A+. Beginner to Advanced terrain.

Mt. Apatite

This is great cross-country terrain. Singletrack to fire roads. Technical to Basic. This is a great trail system for all levels of riders. There is a race in August here, so if you go in August you can follow the signs for the race trail. Otherwise, this can be a confusing trail system to find your way around if you have never been before. Rating B+. Beginner to Advanced terrain.

Pride's Corner River Trail

One of the best trails in southern Maine if you don't like to travel far. It is located off of Forest Avenue on Route 302. It is in the back of the parking lot where Pride's Corner Bowling Alley resides. Park in the bingo hall parking lot to avoid the parking tickets. Head into the trail heads in the back of the bowling alley parking lot. There is a lot of riding throughout here, mostly fast rolling technical terrain for intermediate to advanced riders. Good place to work on your stamina because it is 14 miles to the end and back of the main trail. Also, if you don't like to travel far check out Hinkley Park in South Portland. It is mostly beginner to intermediate there, however. Rating A. Intermediate to Advanced terrain.
