Camden is not only known for its famous harbor, also in the winter many people find their way to this beautiful town to enjoy a ski break. With most of the restaurants, boutiques and accommodations open year round, Camden is an excellent alternative for the crowded and expensive ski resorts. Just minutes from the picturesque village you find Camden’s boutique Ski resort ‘The Camden Snow Bowl’. From the summit of 1300′ Ragged Mountain, home to the Snow Bowl’s trails, skiers and riders have an incredible view of the Atlantic Ocean. It is a view quite unlike any other in the east. The Camden Snow Bowl really is “where the mountains meet the sea”.
In addition to alpine skiing and snowboarding, there are many other winter activities available at the Snow Bowl. A snow tubing slope provides fun for all family members, ice-skating on Hosmer pond and a thrilling 400′ toboggan chute. The National Toboggan Championships are held here the second weekend of February. There is also a cross-country ski and snowshoeing trail available.
Four lifts serve 850′ of vertical. One chairlift, two T-Bars and a surface lift in the beginner area service the ten trails and a terrain park. All trails lead back to a classic A-frame lodge where you will find all services. The Camden Snow Bowl has a ski and snowboard school, full rental shop, an active youth racing program and a fully qualified ski patrol. Coastal Maine sees its share of big winter storms, but we have a snowmaking system that covers 45% of our area to ensure plenty of skiing and riding. Most trails are groomed daily. In the beginning of February Camden Snowbowl hosts the National Toboggan Championships with people from all over the world attending.
The Camden Snowbowl is ideal for a relaxed day of skiing, combined with superb dining, a relaxing massage, browsing unique boutiques and spectacular views, Camden Harbour Inn is a great destination for the winter.
