From 2023-2025, NFCT worked with Teens to Trails to create a series of itineraries for the Maine sections of the canoe trail. The detailed itinerary linked to below is designed to support youth groups, but is great information for all paddlers. Thank you Teens to Trails!
This trip travels through a section of Moosehead Lake, the largest lake in Maine at nearly 40-miles long. This section allows paddlers to explore one of Maine’s top backcountry destinations. While they travel north, paddlers will be able to take in Moosehead’s massive grandeur and have the opportunity to camp under Mt. Kineo. Wildlife viewing opportunities include nesting loons and Peregrine falcons. This section has no portages and no rapids, and can be completed in either direction.
