Black Mountain Nordic Trails, Rumford

QUICK TRAIL FACTS

  • Preserve Size: Not sure
  • Trail Mileage: ~5 miles
  • Pets: no
  • Difficulty: easy to challenging
  • Sights: Black Mountain

This is a wonderful place to x-c ski, albeit on the small side. The tracks are groomed (for both Classic and skating) when a race is scheduled. We were lucky the day we visited because there were high school teams at the mountain racing all day. We managed to get out on a lovely 5K course in between the sprints.

It’s important to note here: the black diamond trails are really black diamond! There are some mega hills here. The course is really challenging.

Directions: You can park in the large parking area for the alpine ski hut, and you buy your x-c ski tickets inside. The ski area is at the end of Glover Road, off Isthmus Road.
