to
the Four Seasons Trail in Madawaska, Maine. We invite everyone from
everywhere to enjoy the free use of our trails. We are a non-profit
organization whose goal is to promote year round outdoor recreation.
Through cross country skiing, mountain biking,
snowshoeing and nature hikes we hope to encourage healthier lifestyles
and a greater appreciation for the natural beauty of Aroostook County.
We currently offer 7 km of groomed nordic
ski trails. We also maintain 7 km of snowshoe trails which connect
to an extensive trail system throughout the Valley.
We wish everyone a safe and successful season.
See you on the trails !

We had a great time hosting the
first annual Acadia FCU Marathon. We would like to thank the fantastic
volunteers from the Acadia Federal Credit Union who did a great job
helping us put this race on.
We would also like to say a huge thank
you to the Madawaska Snowmobile Club members who spent the morning
manning checkpoints so that the skiers could use sections of the snowmobile
trail.

Friday Night Snowshoe
Come
join us on Friday nights on the snowshoe trails. The unofficial
start time is 7pm, but these are very casual evenings, so come when
you like. Bring a flashlight or headlamp if you can, but don't worry
if you don't have one. There should be a few extras kicking around.
Everyone is welcome !!! It's a great way to start the weekend.
There are no fees to use the cross country ski trails in Madawaska,
but if you would like to support this worthy cause we would welcome
your contribution. The Four Seasons Trail Association is an all volunteer
organization and all funds go towards grooming expenses, activities
and future trail upgrades.Click here to
