Presque Isle's premier trail system and the heartbeat of County mountain biking. Over 22 miles of thoughtfully designed IMBA singletrack winds through hardwood and evergreen forest — flowy beginner lines, technical rock features, and everything in between. Home to the Nordic Trail Festival.
A world-class Nordic skiing and biathlon venue in winter, the Fort Kent Outdoor Center at Lonesome Pine Trails transforms into excellent cross-country mountain biking terrain through the warmer months. The network threads through open terrain with long views into the St. John Valley — a very different character from the forest singletrack at NMCT, and worth the drive north.
The Four Seasons Trail Association in Madawaska maintains a growing network of mountain bike and multi-use trails through northern hardwood forest in the upper St. John Valley. Trail use is free — a community-driven effort committed to keeping outdoor recreation accessible to everyone. The same association hosts the Ploye Pedaler gravel event, with an active trail building fund dedicated to expanding singletrack across the valley. This one is growing fast and well worth following.
