Shari's Guidebook for Birdsong Yurt
Ski resort
Home to eight mountains of great skiing and riding and the most dependable snow in New England. In the summer there is still plenty to do at Sunday River, from the scenic ghondola lift rides to disc golf and twin zip lines, Sunday River offers plenty of awesome activities during the summer (and fall). The best part is it’s just 17 miles from the yurt!

Skiing and Mountain Biking
Mt Abram Ski and Mountain Bike park is just 13 mins from the yurt and not only does it offer great skiing and mountain biking it has year round entertainment and great pizza.
Mt Abram is one of our favorites! Great skiing in the winter and they have a awesome mountain bike park in the spring/summer and fall! They have good food and always have some great live music (you may even catch my husband Jeff playing music there :) It’s just a 13 min drive from the yurt!

The park's mountain scenery includes the Screw Auger and Mother Walker waterfalls, Step Falls, and Moose Cave. Recreational opportunities include swimming, fishing, hunting, and picnicking. Hiking trails include a rugged 12-mile (19 km) stretch of the Appalachian Trail that any backcountry hiker would find challenging. Two great hikes with spectacular views are Old Speck and my favorite Table Rock! Grafting Notch State park and scenic Road is just a 35 min drive from the yurt with a full day of adventure.

Mount Will trail in Bethel is another one of my favorite hikes in the area. A 3-mile loop hiking and nature trail along US Route 2 in Bethel that traverses several open ledges with many views of the Androscoggin River Valley. Trail is moderately challenging. 22 minute drive from the yurt.
