SledHead Ventures LLC

SledHead Ventures' Complete Snowmobile Vacation Adventure Packages include snowmobiles, clothing, lodging, guide, gas, meals, and photos for exciting on-trail & backcountry personalized snowmobile touring. SledHead Ventures provides escorted snowmobile adventures, designed for first-time to intermediate-level snowmobilers, in the Maine Wilderness, with an experienced Registered Maine Guide who ensures that each client has a safe, comfortable, and memorable snowmobiling journey. Your adventure will take you on unique routes through the forests, mountains and river valleys of the Kennebec River Valley and the Maine Highlands in western Maine. This area offers the best of Maine's 14,000 miles of snowmobile trails- consistent snow coverage and machine groomed trails, yet without bitter cold temperatures. Around each corner you will see something new - a moose, a waterfall, or a cabin from the 1800s. Please see SledHeadVentures.com for videos, photos, and all the details.

Snowmobile trail conditions during the early and late snowmobiling season tend be considerably better once you travel north of the town of The Forks, so we are located about halfway between The Forks and Jackman, right on US Route 201. ITS 89 and ITS 87, both state-funded groomed trails, are right out the backdoor of our partner lodge which also sits on the shores of Parlin Pond. Our guide provides snowmobiles at your doorstep and lives onsite, next door to the lodge. Several snowmobile groomers are based at the lodge, which also boasts sled gas on site, great cell coverage, wifi, as well as an outstanding restaurant and pub, so all the services you will want are right there where you need them.

Every SledHead Ventures vacation package at our partner lodge includes the following:

* Full time escort by a licensed "Registered Maine Guide" from the time you arrive at the lodge, until the morning you depart.

* Hot-cooked hearty breakfasts, including your departure day.

* Snacks and drinks during breaks along the trails.
