About Caribou, Maine
Caribou is the second-largest city in Aroostook County and the most northeastern city in the United States. It is a favorite spot to venture from when heading out on Maine?s interconnected snowmobile trail system to access the 1,600 miles of trails in Aroostook County. Winter comes early to Caribou and stays late, so they celebrate it each year in February with a fun, family-friendly Winter Carnival.
Besides snowmobiling, Caribou has plenty to offer. Just outside of Caribou is the Aroostook National Wildlife Refuge, which has more than five miles of trails perfect for hiking, snowshoeing, or cross-country skiing. The Aroostook Valley Trail passes through Caribou on its 28 miles of multi-purpose trails from Presque Isle to New Sweden.
