Sunday River

Sunday River, Maine
Sunday River is known throughout New England ...eight interconnected mountain peaks are consistently covered by legendary Sunday River snow. High capacity quads and guaranteed snow on all of the River’s 660 acres of terrain make this a skiers’ and riders' paradise. With over 130 trails, most of them buffed to perfection by award-winning groomers, you don't have to ski the same run twice - but you may want to when you saunter down Dreammaker, or arc perfect turns on American Express. After carving the steeps of White Heat or cruising the S-turns of Lollapalooza -stop for lunch or a fresh cinnamon bun at the on mountain North Peak Lodge, which has a spacious deck for those sunny days. Sunday River has one of longest ski season's in New England, thanks to all the snowmaking. There are plenty of activities for your on and off slope enjoyment. The nearby hamlet of Bethel has been named by Ski Magazine as one of the country's best ski towns.

Sunday River has recently been acquired by Boyne USA along with sister resort Sugarloaf to add to their resort portfolio, so the sun is shining on Sunday River.
