Hike Blue Hill Mountain
There are two main trailheads to access the mountain, both of which have various ways of getting up. One easy trail that has only a few steep sections is the Osgood trail.
Start by parking at the Osgood parking lot. Cross the street, and follow the well marked trail up. Cross a small bridge, and continue up the steepest park of the mountain, until you come to another bridge - stay to the left. ...
Kayak Downeast Maine
This scenic coastline is one of my favorites to travel whether it be on the water or on the shore. The route passes a large sand bar that is great for hanging out on, and enjoying a picnic. This coast also has quite a few summer houses, but it's not hard to find an open spot without bothering anyone to take a break and chill out along the shore. The launching area is public, but known by few.Fr...
Kayak Long Pond
You can reach the northern shore of Long Pond by following 102 South until you reach Somesville. A few miles past this you will notice a Kayak Rental shop on your right and Whitney Farm Road. You can park near here and utilize the shore to put your kayak in, or you can rent from the shop. A pull off is on the left if there is parking open there. The shop can sell out of rentals during peak ...
Camp at Mount Desert Campground on Somes Sound
Being in the center of Mt. Desert Island, you are just a quick drive to Acadia National Park and Bar Harbor.This campground offers waterfront and off-waterfront sites. The waterfront is right along Somes Sound and offers amazing views at anytime of the day. We went during off season (no reservations taken during off season) and the campgrounds were still full but we were lucky enough to get a...
Swim at Echo Lake
Take a dip at Echo Lake in Acadia National Park! It's a small beach that's best driven to and easily park-able once you arrive. It's a refreshing stop for swimming that's right off of the beat and path. There are many campgrounds that rest upon the shores of Echo Lake if you want to be right on the water!
Parking is easy - just drive as far as you can and park in a space that is not affiliated ...
Hike Acadia's 6 Peak Circuit
Park yourself at Parkman Mountain Parking Area, a small lot located off of Route 3. Remember to arrive early as this parking lot fills up quickly. Load up your pack, grab your water, and maneuver your way through the carriage roads until you reach the Bald Peak Trailhead. After a mile climb up 974 feet, reward yourself with a sip of water at the Bald Peak summit.
To continue on your six p...
