Maine Huts & Trails

Maine Huts & Trails is a non-profit organization whose mission is to contribute to the economic, social, and natural environment of Maine's Western Mountains region by creating and operating a world-class recreational corridor for current and future generations. Our backcountry trails enhance access to beautiful lakes, rivers, and forest lands, and our low-impact huts provide inviting spaces that facilitate outdoor adventures and learning. This self-sustaining resource stimulates environmentally sensitive economic opportunity in the region by attracting visitors of all ages and abilities.

Our Work is:

• Creating a resource of national significance for our state and regions.
• Providing opportunities for environmental and experiential education.
• Enhancing opportunities for people-powered outdoor recreation.
• Stimulating environmentally sensitive economic development opportunities in Western Maine.
• Instilling an environmental stewardship and conservation ethic within our communities and residents.
• Ensuring perpetual year-round public access to remote and special areas along the trail corridor.
