“ The
Poplar Stream Falls trail is perfect for snowshoeing with the
whole family. Beautiful scenery with the stream, and of course
the falls up at the hut! Then the accommodations at the hut
are top notch. Delicious home cooked meals, cozy fireplaces,
rooms to play games or quietly read a good book. We will definitely
be back this year!!! .”

Founded
in 2001 as Western Mountains Foundation and now doing business
as Maine Huts & Trails, we are a non-profit, 501 (c)(3)
corporation, organized to build and operate a hut-to-hut trail system
in western Maine.
When
completed, Maine Huts & Trails will include up to 12 rustic, yet
comfortable, backcountry huts and more than 180 miles of non-motorized
trails. And while we seek to build an active community of outdoor
enthusiasts, we are interested in much more than just having fun on
the trails or in the huts. Through our collective efforts, we will
protect and provide opportunities for future generations to experience
the natural beauty of western Maine. We will introduce the wonders
of the outdoors to young people in hopes of creating tomorrow's outdoor
stewards. We will encourage healthy lifestyles by creating opportunities
for accessible, people-powered outdoor recreation. As an added benefit,
Maine Huts & Trails will bring much-needed economic development
to western Maine, by drawing a steady stream of outdoor enthusiasts
to the region year-round.
