Go Karting in Maine
Unforgettable go-karting thrills in Maine.
In Maine, go-karting is a summer tradition. The state’s tracks are predominantly outdoor "Adventure Park" style circuits that open when the snow melts. While the closure of the state's only dedicated indoor facility left a gap for serious racers, the outdoor tracks in Windham and Wells provide excellent entertainment for families and vacationers during the warmer months.
The premier destination for outdoor karting is Seacoast Adventure in Windham. Located near Sebago Lake, this park features a 1/4-mile outdoor track that is significantly larger and faster than the typical amusement park oval. It runs gas-powered karts and challenges drivers to find the fastest racing line through its curves.
For those visiting the southern coast (Ogunquit/Wells area), Wonder Mountain Fun Park offers a different experience. Their "Snake Pit" track features electric go-karts, which offer instant acceleration and a quieter ride compared to gas engines. The track is known for its banked curves and 700 feet of twists, making it a hit with families.

Go karting in Maine - FAQs
Common questions about karting in Maine.
No. Maine Indoor Karting in Scarborough permanently closed its doors in 2020. Residents looking for indoor karting now typically travel to Pioneer Valley Indoor Karting in Massachusetts or R1 Indoor Karting in Rhode Island.
Options are limited further north. Big Adventure Center in Bethel (Western Maine) has operated go-karts in the past alongside mini-golf, but it is best to call ahead to confirm availability. Most major commercial tracks are concentrated in the southern lakes and coastal regions.
Since Maine's tracks are outdoors, they typically open on weekends starting in May and run daily from mid-June through Labor Day, weather permitting.
