Long-Run Trails (5+ Miles) in Maine

Maine has 32 trails with long-run distance (5+ miles) in this directory, across 14 cities and towns — Portland, Gorham, Westbrook, Kennebunkport and 10 more. Five miles or more of continuous trail — enough to build a real long run on.

Labels come from each trail's own listing, its website and runners' reviews. Conditions change with the weather and the season, and gates and lights follow the park's own hours, so check a recent review before you drive out.
