July 24, 2009, Newsletter Issue #178: Acadia National Park Hiking
Tip of the Week
Perched on the rim of Maine's rugged coastline, Acadia is a rugged, wild, and beautiful park. Acadia National Park hiking is some of the best in New England, with wide carriage trails for leisurely walks, to climbing and mountaineering trails that require stamina and more than a little courage!
One thing to remember when you hike in Acadia is to be wary of cliff edges. They can crumble beneath you if you walk too close to the edge, so keep back and enjoy the view from a safe distance. The weather in Acadia can be changeable as well, so always make sure you dress in layers before you go Acadia National Park hiking.
Some of the favorite hikes in the park include the Bar Harbor Shore Path, which meanders along the rugged shoreline, and the Cadillac Summit Loop trail, which will take you to the top of Cadillac Mountain for views of the bay below. Tidepool trails will keep the kids interested, too! Acadia National Park hiking offers something for everyone – young and old.
