Winter Activities

The Brunswick Parks & Recreation Department maintains two locations for Cross Country Skiing and three ice skating locations that we create and maintain ice.  This page will provide you with facility information and conditions of those facilities and trails.


Effective Sunday,  December 3rd  the parking lot at the Mere Creek Golf Course will be open to the public seeking to use the groomed trails on the course and Kate Furbish West property.

Cross Country Ski Trails

KFP-WEST trail map Ski map 11-2-21 main mapKate Furbish Trails - West



Current Status: 12/6   Around 2.5  inches of snow came down for our fist snowfall of the season.  Melting and rain mixed in, and thinned it out quite a bit of it.  This reduced the snow totals on the trails heavily.   

Grooming-  12/6 -  

Due to snow conditions, no grooming will be done at this time. 


Golf course-   Poor -   The Snow is thin on the course,  thinner on sides of hills and under any tree cover.  Due to the rain and temps what is left is icy.   

Trails-   Poor-   Very little snow on trails, especially with heavy tree cover.  Water on trails as well.      

Town Merriconeag  and Golf Course parking lots are now available for parking.
