Take the car, hike, or bike through the Acadia National Park and
see all the wonderful sights. Photography is very popular in this area.
You almost can't take a bad picture. The highway past the
campground turns to a one-way road and is very popular with cyclist.
Winter Harbor is just two miles from the campground. It's
a great place to explore with small shops and restaurants. Campbase
recommends walking or biking. Campbase likes Chase's Restaurant for sea
food in Winter Harbor. They are on located on Main Street.
Bar Harber, on Mount Desert is another great destination.
It's quintessential Down East Maine. A bit touristy but, quite a
bit of fun with bars, hotels, restaurants and souvenir shops. It's a
must see on everyone's list. The other section of Acadia National Park is
also on Mount Desert Island.
Bring your bike. The park has completed an extensive
network of bike/hike trails. All trails are crushed rock and suitable for
most types of bikes however, a mountain bike is recommended. Once you
have explored the Schoodic trails, take the bikes over to Mount Desert and
explore an even more extensive network of carriage trails.
Acadia as a place to watch for the Perseid
meteor showers, since the park is so well-known for its night sky, there’s even
a festival to celebrate it annually.
We'll have to stay up late for the meteor shower!!!!!
