October 30, 2026
We are entering stick season! The wind has whistled through the trees and dropped most of the leaves. All trails are open for hiking, biking, dog walking, gnome visiting, and bird watching!
Season Passes are on sale at 2026 prices until December 31, 2026. Passes can be purchased online at this time. Don’t forget about the 10 Pass-can be used by a single person 10 times or for 10 friends all at once! The 10 Pass does not expire and carries over into the new season each year.
The Gnome Village is only a short distance from the yurt and a fun place to explore! Pick up a Gnome Home Roam map at the Yurt to get to know them all. Collecting stamps from each gnome home is a fun RLTC activity for all ages. Keep an eye out for animal tracks too! Interesting flora and fauna sightings can be added to our board in the Yurt.
If you are out enjoying the trails, please consider a donation to the Trails Center. Donations are put towards maintenance and operations of RLTC. Donation boxes are located at the Kiosks. Thank you in advance and happy trails!
Make sure to check out the rebuilt single track bridges Wounded Warrior and Boston Strong! Happy Trails :)

The Rangeley Lakes Trail Center remains steadfast in providing year-round trail experiences. It is our goal to provide a world class multi-use trail system for nordic skiing, fat biking, snowshoeing in the winter and hiking and biking in the spring, summer and fall. To maintain our operations, we rely heavily on the generosity of our community, business partners, and those who utilize the trails. Funds generated through our donation program are used to help cover not only our daily operational expenses, but also make meaningful improvements. Improvements made thus far include a newer Pisten Bully Groomer, two heated vault privies/ changing rooms, an AED and a rescue sled, as well as upgraded and new bridges and single track trails. Your donations make a significant difference in covering our operational expenses, our ability to make continued improvements and deliver on our commitment to create positive trail experiences. We greatly appreciate your support! To obtain more information regarding our donation program and to make a donation please click here!

We work hard to be good stewards of the land by preserving wildlife habitat, constructing erosion resistant trails, and encouraging old growth forests.
Nestled at the base of Saddleback Mountain in Maine’s western mountains, our Trails Center has something for everyone. Spring, summer and fall, hikers and bikers enjoy the rolling terrain and scenic vistas. And in the winter months, with over 200 inches of annual snowfall, skiers, snowshoers and fat tire bikers savor our meticulously groomed trails. We are building a world-class multi-use trails system, but we cannot achieve our goals alone. Find out how you can help.
