Distance: 25, 39, 50 and 69 miles
Terrain: Moderately undulating

These pleasant loops take cyclists through twelve different towns of the Sebasticook Valley region. This region provides scenic views of Big Indian Pond, Sebasticook Lake and Plymouth Pond. The Sebasticook River intersects at many points along the tour. Scenery along the tour includes a mixture of rolling farmland, forest and quaint villages.

This tour provides both on-road and off-road possibilities. While the designated tours stay on public roads, the enterprising trip planner can use the Newport to Dexter rail trail or the Pittsfield to Hartland rail trail if some off-road experience is desired. Note that these rail trails can be muddy or soft in places and are shared with ATVs.

The full 69-mile loop encompasses ten different towns, including Dexter and Lake Wassookeag. Shorter options available include a 50-mile loop combining Alternates 1, 2 and 3 that includes Corinna and Dexter. This loop can be shortened to 39 miles by using Alternate 2A out of Corinna, for a shorter return to Newport and Pittsfield. A 25-mile loop is possible by taking the main tour to St. Albans and then returning to Pittsfield via Alternate 1 by using the directions in reverse. Try whatever is within your limits and have fun!
