Winter is a mixed bag up here in the North! There’s certainly cold and snow, but that also means plenty of opportunities to enjoy cozy corners and hot beverages. It also means tons of outdoor activities that can only be enjoyed with a fresh coating of snow. It might seem like an unexpected idea, but dog sledding in Maine is one of the activities we’re most excited about this season! Things kick up when the snow starts to fall so it’s a great idea to start planning your visit now.

The western mountain region of Maine is beautiful all the time, but in the winter it's extraordinary.
