Below is a compilation of helmet camera footage captured at Highland. It shows most of what the place has to offer feature wise. Helmet cameras can be deceptive in showing scale, difficulty, and trail details so take it with a grain of salt. Highland MTB park has a little bit of everything for everyone. A lot of places say this but Highland actually delivers. They have everything from technical downhill trails to pump tracks and everything in between. Highland has been designed to be a fully featured park for everyone, not just experienced riders. They strive very hard to make the park enjoyable for riders as their skills progress and become more advanced during their riding at the park over time.

    A Beautiful Central Maine Bike Ride Route     One of the challenges of riding a bike in Maine is to find good routes to ride that other cyclists have previously enjoyed. There are endless great ride options available but it is difficult to sit down with a map and find a route that is "Cyclist Friendly". You don't know if the roadway is falling apart or if it is so narrow it isn't safe or comfortable to ride. Unless you have a topographical map you have no idea what kind of terrain you will encounter. And no map can tell you what kind of traffic to expect on your ride. We would like to compile a list of  "user generated" ride resources for great bike rides in Central Maine so this is the beginning. I recently "Stumbled Upon"...
