About Sunday River

Sunday River is the largest and most comprehensively developed ski resort in Maine, spreading across eight interconnected peaks with 870 skiable acres that represent the most consistent snowmaking operation in New England — a capability it has invested in heavily since the 1980s to compensate for Maine's variable natural snowfall patterns. Its trail network suits intermediate and advancing skiers particularly well, with long groomed runs connecting the peaks and genuine steeps on the Oz and White Cap areas for advanced skiers looking for challenge. The resort village at the base has grown considerably in recent years, with ski-in, ski-out slopeside accommodation and a range of dining options that make it viable as a destination resort rather than a day trip. Its position on the Ikon Pass has significantly increased its national profile and visitor numbers.
