Snowmobile Sightseeing Tour

We can get you there! If there is anyone who can lead you to those beautiful remote nuggets of the Moosehead Lake region of Maine It"s our professional Maine guides from Northwoods Outfitters.

Your trip will leave from Greenville on our beautifully groomed trail system leading out of town into the breathtaking wilderness that is uniquely Maine. The ITS (Interstate Trail System) trails are easy to navigate and are a great way to practice your snowmobiling skills and learn trail etiquette.

From the main ITS trail arteries, your guide can lead you away from the crowds to into his favorite and little known backcountry trails. The Maine Mountains have hundreds of miles of "backcountry" trails, many of which are not on the local trail maps. Some of these trails lead to beautiful vistas; others meander through densely wooded trails that haven"t yet seen human visitors this season.

This trip is available for beginners through experienced riders and your guide will customize your trip for your ability level. High quality rental snowmobiles are available by reservation, or you may bring your own.

We meet at Northwoods Outfitters in Greenville to get ready for our trip. From there we will take you out to an ice fishing house on Moosehead Lake where you will place your fishing "tip ups" in drilled holes in the ice. We will then go in to the warm hut and cook up some breakfast and some hot coffee and hot chocolate.

Your Maine guide will discuss the art of ice fishing and talk about the history of the Moosehead Lake region and how fishing relates to the areas economy. During the day you will have the opportunity to snowshoe and cross country ski on the lake while you are fishing. If the fishing is good that morning you will be able to cook your fish for lunch (we will have other food just in case)
