Don’t get me wrong. I liked Acadia National Park in Maine. But as a hiking destination, you can do better.

Why?

On the bright side, there’s no need to hike to and from your vehicle. Using the free Park bus shuttle opens up all sorts of interesting options.

And the trails are good. The views excellent.

I spent only 2 days in Acadia. Then set off for Mt Washington, New Hampshire.

… But if I went back to Acadia, I’d plan to mountain bike the Carriage Roads rather than hike.
