IMPORTANT: Border Crossing Hours Changing for 38 Ports

Estcourt Station / Pohenegamook

Estcourt Station / Pohénégamook – Frontier Road / Rang de la Frontiere

The eastern Maine border is a rugged mountain area that is very lightly populated. The tiny town of Estcourt Station has few amenities and a very small population. It is the northernmost point in Maine at the southern end of Lake Pohenegamook.

Before heading to the border, be sure to review our pages on preparing for customs and prohibited items.
