For lovers of all things nature, Acadia National Park is an absolute gem for outdoorsmen like Steven Mesia.
Nestled in the harbor side of Northern Maine, Acadia Park was founded in 1919 along the rugged coastline offering tremendous views of both the Atlantic ocean and towering mountains. With over 125 trails to hike throughout the park, Acadia Park is a premier destination for anyone who appreciates the great outdoors as much as Steven Mesia.Acadia Park is a protected National Park, along with others in Alaska, Texas, the Mid-West, the Northern Rockies, and the Sun Coast to name just a few locations.
Fishing enthusiasts can cast their line in the nearby Bar Harbor, with very possible views of wild dolphins and harbor seals. Bar Harbor is the perfect little town to spend the day shopping and grabbing a bite to eat in between outdoor adventures with family and friends.
From beginner to advanced, there are trails and sights to see for hikers of all levels of experience. Cadillac Mountain can be hiked, or if you're more up for the easy route, you can drive your car to the top and take in the spectacular panoramic views of the harbor and surrounding mountains.From mid-October to March, Cadillac Mountain Peak is the first place in the United States visible to the sunrise. Make sure to beat the crowds and get up early enough to claim your spot - it gets extremely busy, but it is incredibly worth it.
Feeling a bit more adventurous? Precipice Trail and Beehive Trail are two of the most advanced trails, involving free climbing, cliff walks, and tremendous heights.
