August 5, 2014 by WSKI Leave a Comment

There’s something about living here in the mountains that means going downhill on your mountain bike is what we do…!!! The CV NEMBA Club has created many miles of cross-country, through the woods, up & down the steeps, & over the river, trails for all levels of riding in Carrabassett Valley. This video on the Widowmaker Challenge from a few years back shows some of the history of mountain biking in our region, as we continue to grow & develop this exciting outdoor adventure sport to attract more visitors to our region! Come play & experience the fun for yourself!!

Mountain Biking in the Valley: It’s an adventure!

June 19, 2013 by WSKI Leave a Comment

I ride my bike everyday. Well, everyday that I can make time for it. Fortunatly for myself, the summer season in the High Peaks Region is much slower and more relaxed. Compared to the busy Winter demands of working in the ski industry, the summertime is… well awesome. If your looking for outdoor oppurtunities here in the High Peaks Region, there is enough to keep you busy for a lifetime.

Mountain biking is getting huge in Carrabassett Valley. Between the work of Carrabassett Region NEMBA, Maine Huts and Trails, Sugarloaf and the Town of Carrabassett Valley, we are well on our way to becoming a world class destination for mountain biking. [Read more…]

Carrabassett Valley Bike Shop

May 11, 2012 by WSKI Leave a Comment

Mountain biking in the Carrabassett Region is getting BIG. The last couple years has seen new singletrack, improved and maintained trails, the Carrabassett Backcountry Challenge, the forming of the Carrabassett Region chapter of the New England Mountain Bike Association and lots more.
