Sugarloaf Opens Maine’s Newest Lift-Served Bike Park July 4

Sugarloaf, Maine’s newest lift-accessed bike park, launches July 4 with 1,000 feet of vert, the flowy new Emerald trail, and classic DH tech used in World Cup and ESC races.

Big news for East Coast riders: Sugarloaf, Maine’s legendary ski resort, is poking its head into the summer game with a brand-new, lift-accessed bike park set to open July 4, 2025.

The Whiffletree Express will be the park’s main lift, dishing up 1,000 feet of vertical per lap.

The star of opening day is Emerald, a freshly built, machine-cut flow trail that winds for three miles through berms, rollers, and jumps—designed to give everyone from first-timers to seasoned riders something to grin about. It's the first of several new trails slated to drop this season, with a beginner-friendly flow trail on track to open this fall.

But Sugarloaf isn’t building from scratch—the park also features OG gravity trails used in World Cup and Eastern States Cup downhill and enduro races. We can’t wait to get a taste of that classic east coast tech.

That includes NE juggernauts like Widowmaker Extension, Jackpot, and Rookie River—a trifecta of rugged, rooty descents that will satisfy your need for true jank. Awkward and difficult? Yes.
