Backpacking in Maine

If you want to sleep under the stars, disconnect, and immerse yourself in nature while walking all day... backpacking is for you!



Mountain

Maine offers some of the most remote and spectacular backpacking on the East Coast. The famed '100-mile Wilderness' section of the Appalachian Trail does not cross a single paved road, nor does it pass through any towns. Baxter State Park is a mecca for backpackers, with the centerpiece being Katahdin , the most alpine (and arguably most beautiful) mountain east of the Mississippi River.
