This hiking trail system incorporates existing trail in addition to sections designed and created by the IWT Trail Crew in the summer of 2023.
Loops include the Beechnut Loop (1.35 miles, easy) and the Jordan Loop (1.5 miles, moderate). There is an observation desk on the Jordan Loop that provides sweeping views of Goose Eye and Mount Carlo.
IWT continues to design and develop the Community Access Trail System (CATS) which will connect Mount Abram to Sunday River Resort (Mount Abram to Bethel Village, and Bethel Village to the Bethel Community Forest at the North Road parking lot is currently complete.) The development of the Jordan Hiking Trail system furthers the connection and partnership between IWT and Sunday River Resort in providing high quality, durable outdoor recreational opportunities to the community.

From US-2, 3 miles south of Newry and 2.6 miles north of Bethel, take the Sunday River Road, opposite the Androscoggin River. Go 3.2 miles, then bear left onto Monkey Brook Road. Go 4 miles until reaching the Jordan Hotel at the end of the road.
The Resort asks that hikers please access the trail by walking around the right side of the building and not by entering the hotel. The trailhead is located by the firepit.
