Outdoor Activities

Madison is a great place to get outdoors regardless of the season.  With access to water both at Lake Wesserunsett and the Kennebec River, there are a number of recreational activities to enjoy.  There are also trails for hiking and biking as well as snowshoeing and cross country skiing when the weather is right.  Enjoying the great outdoors is another reason Madison is a great place to live, work and play!

Madison is part of the Kennebec Valley where tourism is recreationally based.  Watch this short video about all the Kennebec Valley has to offer.
