This route is well-traveled by winter sports enthusiasts who flock to the region for skiing and snowmobiling. Beginning in Kingfield, the byway winds along the Carrabassett River, revealing views of Mount Abraham and the Bigelow Range, including Sugarloaf USA, along the way. North of Stratton, the route passes Flagstaff Lake and through Cathedral Pines, the largest stand of old-growth forest in the state. Route 27 then continues northward through the Chain of Ponds and climbs up the Boundary Mountains to Coburn Gore and the Canadian border.
