The best MTB trails in Kettle Cove State Park

The Portland Head Light is located on a rocky promontory in Cape Elizabeth, Maine, and has marked the entrance to Portland Harbor since 1791. It is the oldest lighthouse in the state. The 24-meter-tall, white tower structure was built at the direction of George Washington. Today, the U.S. Coast Guard operates the light, while the former keeper's house houses a museum. The building is owned by the municipality and is located in picturesque Fort Williams Park, overlooking the Atlantic Ocean.

You'll find several miles of trails here, blending seamlessly into the trails of Winnick Woods, just to the north. If you're walking, watch out for fast-moving mountain bikers on some of the Winnick Woods trails.

This 71-acre parcel of woodland was donated to the township of Cape Elizabeth. It's a popular spot for walking, jogging and biking, and contains a 1.7-mile multi-use loop trail. There are also some trails that were purpose-built for mountain biking, so watch out for fast-moving bikers on those.

Tucked between Congress and Franklin Streets in Portland, Lincoln Park is one of the city’s oldest public green spaces. It was laid out shortly after the devastating fire of 1866 and named in honor of Abraham Lincoln. The park’s open lawn, lined with old trees and crisscrossed by walking paths, is enclosed by a wrought-iron fence. A stone fountain marks its center. Though modest in size, the park quietly reflects a chapter of Portland’s rebuilding history.

Very large salt marsh. Great for bird watching

Lincoln Park is located in downtown Portland, Maine. The park was established in 1866 after a major fire destroyed almost all of the city's houses. In 1989, the park was added to the National Register of Historic Places. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lincoln_Park_(Portland,_Maine)
