Group Mountain Bike Rides
Wednesday in the Woods
Freewheeling Fridays
The Camden Snow Bowl is inviting mountain bikers of all ages and abilities to hit the trails this summer through two weekly community ride programs designed to build skills, foster connections, and celebrate the region’s growing mountain biking community.
Rides depart from the lodge at 6pm. Wednesday night rides are guided by Sidecountry Sports and Friday night rides are guided by MCNEMBA (Mid Coast Chapter of the New England Mountain Bike Association).
Beginner Groups will focus on fun, skill-building, and easy trails in a supportive, no-pressure environment. Riders who are new to mountain biking or looking to build confidence on the trails are encouraged to join. Intermediate and Advanced Groups will tackle more challenging terrain, faster-paced riding, and advanced trail features, providing opportunities for experienced riders to push their skills and fitness.
Following each ride, participants are encouraged to gather at Snow Dogs inside the lodge for food, drinks, and post-ride camaraderie.
Riders should arrive with a properly functioning mountain bike, helmet, water, and any personal riding gear they may need. Want to join but don't have a mountain bike? Sidecountry Sports will be open at the Camden Snow Bowl Trailside location during group rides, and hard tail, full suspension and e-mountain bikes will be available for riders to rent. Reservations are required. Please visit Sidecountry's website to see what bikes are available, make a reservation, or call them at 207-701-5100 for more information.

Maine Gravity Race Series
Three venues. Three weekends. One champion.
The Maine Gravity Series brings together three of Maine’s most exciting mountain bike destinations for an inaugural enduro-style race series unlike anything the state has seen. Whether you’re racing to claim the series championship or showing up to test yourself on new terrain, this is your summer on two wheels.
How It Works
The Maine Gravity Series is an enduro-format race series spanning three events across summer and early fall. Each venue offers its own distinct character — from the vertical of Sugarloaf’s bike park to the all-new Enduro Cross format at Camden Snowbowl to the grand finale at Mt. Abram.
Each event is a two-day weekend experience:
- Saturday — Practice day. Get your lines dialed, explore the course, and prep for race day.
- Sunday — Race day. Timed enduro stages decide the results.
Race one event, two, or all three. The series championship is awarded to the rider with the best combined result across all three events — with best male and female honors recognized across applicable age categories at each stop along the way. The series leaderboard culminates at Mt. Abram, where the inaugural Maine Gravity Series champions will be crowned.
Registration is available individually through each host resort.
The Series
Kick off the series at Sugarloaf Bike Park, where big vertical and a burly trail network meet some of Maine's newest excavated flow terrain.
Expect sustained, technical riding alongside freshly shaped lines built for speed—a course mix that rewards both the calculated and the committed.
It's a worthy opening chapter for the series. This race will include both lift access & pedal transfers as part of the course.
Registration at sugarloaf.com
The Enduro Cross at Camden Snowbowl is an all-new event format debuting as part of the Maine Gravity Series.
Camden's trail network brings a completely different feel to the series, offering technical and creative lines. This session is not to be missed.
This race will not have lift access and include pedal transfers only.
The series comes home to Mt. Abram for the grand finale.
This is where the leaderboard is settled, and the inaugural Maine Gravity Series champions are named. Arrive with points to defend, rivalries to settle, or simply a great weekend of riding ahead of you.
This race will include both lift access & pedal transfers as part of the course.
Registration opens soon at mtabram.com

Feb. 5-7, 2027
For more than 30 years, daredevils from all over the country have been sliding down the country's only gravity-driven, ice-filled, 400-foot-long wooden toboggan chute with a vertical incline of 70+ feet. Toboggan racers can travel up to 40 mph before sliding out onto frozen Hosmer Pond in a bid for custom trophies and bragging rights. More than 400 teams compete, and the event attracts a crowd upwards of 5,000 people annually. Registration is now open. Visit our new website to learn more!
