Maine Huts & Trails is a non-profit organization responsible for creating a system of nature trails and eco-lodges located in the mountain region of Western Maine. The network connects over 80 miles of trails between Route 27 in Carrabassett Valley and Route 201 in West Forks, Maine. Visitors to the area can expect to enjoy activities such as hiking, mountain biking, cross country skiing, snowshoeing, fat-bike riding, fishing, paddling and swimming.
