Rangeley Lakes Visitor & Resource Guide

Visitor Guide 2021-2022

Spring: As winter loses its grip on the area, ice on
the lakes gives way to deep blue waters, a fisherman’s
paradise for landlocked salmon and brook trout. Fields and
forests come alive as wildflowers emerge once again, the
loons return and you may even be lucky enough to catch a

glimpse of a newborn moose or deer.

Summer: Enjoy boating, water sports, golf, fields blanketed
with lupine & wildflowers, hiking for all skill levels, breath-
taking drives & vistas, and magical stargazing, including
the most spectacular light show of all, the Aurora Borealis.
Choose from a wide variety of dining, shopping, accommo-
dations and much more.

Bald Mountain Trail: Take Bald Mt. Road. Trail is on left. Follow
marked trail to top of mountain approx. 1.75 miles. Be sure to pro-
ceed to fire tower for beautiful views of surrounding mountains &
lakes. Good family hike! Picnic table at both top and bottom of trail.

Cascade Stream Gorge Trail: Route 4 south of Rangeley 3.5
miles, turn left on Town Hall Road, follow signs to parking area. Fol-
low trail markers through forested area, trail opens before stream-
side trail. Multiple short spur trails to view gorge and waterfalls.
Easy, but uneven and steep terrain. 30 minutes.

Hatchery Brook Trail: 1/10 mile on Manor Road off Route 4 just
west of Rangeley Village. Easy one-mile loop through woods with 3
lakeshore picnic sites.

Hunter Cove Wildlife Sanctuary: A series of walking trails to view
wildlife on Rangeley Lake’s Hunter Cove courtesy of the RLHT. Enter
parking lot off Route 4 at the foot of Dodge Pond Hill.

Mingo Springs Trail & Bird Walk: A 2 mile walk through various for-
est types with excellent wildlife viewing. From intersection of Route 4
& 16 downtown, travel north 2.2 miles. Turn left on Mingo Loop. Trail
head is 0.4 miles on right.

Piazza Rock: Enter Appalachian Trail where it crosses Route 4
approx. 9 miles south of the center of Rangeley. Nice hike to do
with children. Approx. 1.4 miles to Piazza Rock.

Saddleback Mountain: Begin at the Base Lodge and follow the
orange stakes on the following trails - Grey Ghost, Upper Grey
Ghost and Tri Color. The trails are wide and offer nice views.

MAINE’S RANGELEY LAKES

The pristine splendor of lakes and mountains serves as a perfect

setting for year-round vacations. The Rangeley Lakes glisten like
gems stretched out below 4,120-foot Saddleback Mountain. Six
major lakes, hundreds of smaller lakes and ponds, and rivers and
streams lure vacationers for fishing, boating and swimming.

Play golf and tennis or take a bike ride or a scenic seaplane flight.
Boat, canoe, and kayak. Walk or hike numerous trails, including the fa-
mous Appalachian Trail. Browse a variety of shops and enjoy cultural
events and festivals in all seasons. Drive the Rangeley Lakes National
Scenic Byway to magnificent overlooks. Registered Maine Guides
assist fishermen, hunters, recreational hikers and wildlife watchers.

The world’s most brilliant fall colors transform the mountain-and-lake
vistas to breathtaking beauty. Fall ushers in winter’s equally beautiful
and sparkling snowscapes.

Snowmobile the Region’s 170 miles of trails groomed with the
latest-technology equipment. Trails connect to New Hampshire and
Canada. Nordic skiing is superb at the Rangeley Lakes Trails Center
and ski the new Saddleback - Saddleback is back!

Inns, cottages, homes, condos, B&B’s, lodges, sporting camps and
campgrounds cater to every need. You’ll enjoy the abundant variety
of dining and shopping.

Our seasons unfold dramatically, each enhancing the unspoiled
mountains and wilderness. Lush greens; sunlit hillsides of many-
colored wildflowers; brilliant reds, oranges, yellows, browns; or stark
white result in equal beauty for each season.

When you visit the Rangeley Lakes, stop by the Chamber of Commerce
at Lakeside Park for numerous detailed brochures, maps and area
information.

streams, ponds, deep forests, and open fields and see wildlife
in their natural habitat. See also: WINTER IN THE RANGELEY
LAKES REGION section.
Birding: The Rangeley area is a wonderful place to see birds
and other wildlife. Because we have such a diverse set of
ecosystems within a huge wilderness area, just about any bird
that comes to the northeast can be found here, even those
that are rare and endangered. Contact the Rangeley Lakes
Heritage Trust for information on the Rangeley Birding Festival
in early June.
