Rides | Presumpscot River Trail (Portland)

This trail is a scenic wonder as it follows the river with tight, winding singletrack and a number of outrageously steep gullys. Be careful on some parts of the trail as you could easily fall into the river! This is not a beginner's area. There are a few ways to access the trail, but the simplest is to start from Auburn St (Rt 26/100 ). Just before you cross the Presumpscot River, hit the trail on the right hand side. Bear right at the bottom and that's about all you have to know. The trail follows the river to the dam, but it truly ends slightly before the dam. There are a number of trails breaking off on the right that will take you up and down the ridgelines and out into various streets in the area.
