Oxford

Oxford is a small western Maine town with outsized appeal for outdoor enthusiasts and motorsports fans alike. Home to Oxford Plains Speedway — one of New England’s premier racing venues — the town draws crowds throughout the summer racing season. The surrounding Oxford Hills region offers excellent fishing, hunting, and snowmobiling, with easy access to the ski resorts and mountain trails of the broader western Maine highlands. Oxford sits at a crossroads between the lakes region and the mountains, making it a practical base for exploring everything western Maine has to offer.
