Winter is the season when Maine truly sparkles. Whether you take in the beauty from the back of a horse-drawn sleigh or set out on snowshoes, there are many ways to enjoy our winter wonderland. You can ski and ride on some of the best slopes in the East. Explore the beautiful countryside on pristine cross-country and snowmobile trails.
Celebrate the holidays by visiting lighthouses decked out in Christmas lights. Discover quaint shops in snow-covered villages. Or just snuggle by the fire with a mug of steaming cocoa. So the next time you’re thinking of a cozy winter getaway, think Maine.
