3. Go Dogsledding
Exploring the trails of Maine’s backcountry by dogsled is an experience like no other, and tourists have several excellent options to choose from. In Bethel, New England Dogsledding has a team of Alaskan Huskies that bring guests on a tour of local trails at the Umbagog National Wildlife Refuge, as well as operating tours at Sunday River Ski Area in Newry and in the nearby White Mountains of New Hampshire at the Balsams and North Conway. Ultimate Dogsledding Experience, which is headquartered in Oxford, also runs tours out of Bethel, as well as Hebron and Casco.
4. Ski & Board with an Ocean View
Camden Snow Bowl is the only ski area on the East Coast that offers slopes with a view of the ocean, providing a truly unique experience. Located only about five miles from Penobscot Bay, the resort offers over 20 trails for all skill levels. This smaller, locally-run ski area is a great option for families.
