Description
The Trek Across Maine is a multi-day cycling event starting and ending at Thomas Point Beach & Campground in Brunswick. Overnight stops at Bates College in Lewiston and St. Joseph’s College in Standish provide a place to rest and relax after each leg of the Trek. Activities, entertainment, and food are all a part of the full Trek experience at each location.
With 600+ volunteers each year, the Trek is fully supported in all areas. Volunteers provide support at rest stops and intersections along the route, as cheerleaders and traffic control at the finish line, and much more. Bike shops from across the state volunteer their time to make sure your bike holds up just as long as you do!
