Rock-strewn breakwaters and charming fishing villages frame unforgettable walks on this hiking tour of Acadia National Park and the Maine Coast.
Before you, the distant summits surrounding Mt. Battie lie cloaked in forest. A trio of islands float in a shimmering bay. It’s a grand scene, and it inspired one of history’s great writers, Edna St. Vincent Millay, to contemplate an “immensity made manifold” in her poem “Renascence.” Marveling at the vastness, you think she got it right. But during this journey, words sometimes elude you. A low-tide trek along the ocean floor leads to Bar Island; sweeping cliffside sea views are accompanied by a soundtrack of foamy breakwaters along Great Head Trail; the Quiet Side of Mt. Desert Island is graced by the call of loons across tranquil waters. Throughout this hiking tour of Acadia National Park and the Maine Coast, the convenience of having your own car adds a sense of freedom and possibility. It leaves you wondering how such immensity can feel so intimate.
