"My first adventure race and the course was very demanding with incredible views. Mohawk Falls was beautiful and I can't wait to camp there next year."

Matt Schiller, 2017

With the option to camp two days at Mohawk Falls, consider making this a weekend destination for you and your friends and family. This region is home to many hidden gems. Here are a few favorites:
Local Activity
Hike Monadnock Mountain, located just across the river in Lemington, VT. From Colebrook, travel west on Bridge Street, then north on VT Route 102, taking your first left at the gravel pit. This 2,080-ft ascent is approximately 2.25 miles to the summit. Climb the fire tower and see a 360-degree view of the North Country. This is a dog friendly hike.

Have a little lead left in those legs? You can't miss out on the flowing single-track located 20 minutes away at Circuits Frontieres in East Hereford, Quebec. A day pass ($10 Canadian funds) may be purchased online at circuitsfrontieres.com . Don't forget your passport - this is an experience you won't want to miss. This is also a dog-friendly trail system. You'll just need rabies vaccination papers to cross the border.

Circuits Frontieres trails network is part of a natural conservancy land situated in a very scenic, quiet and remote part of Quebec just at the border of Quebec, New-Hampshire and Vermont.

The trails are purposely build for mountain biking with flow, fun and adventure in mind. It has a real backcountry feel to it. The trails are long, with few intersections and covers great distances. Ride hard or peacefully without taking out your map every minute. We have something for everyone from easy and smooth beginner trails to epic all mountain journey on fast, flowy and challenging trails.

Before hitting the road back to home from Canada, consider taking a 10-minute detour to April's Maple ( aprilsmaple.com ) for lunch and all things maple. Muddy shorts, no worries. April is a former triathlete who loves outdoor adventure, and she will gladly welcome you to her sugarhouse to refuel.

Thanks to the generosity of local philanthropists, Colebrook is privileged to have an indoor pool facility, North Country Community Recreation Center. Here you will find an Olympic size pool, kiddie pool, outdoor playground, and shower facilities. northrec.org

The program schedule for September 15th includes a performance by Mark Mandeville and Raianne Richards tillotsoncenter.org. Admission is free for racers, and spectators may attend for only $5.
