After college, she chose to trade in her winter boots for slippahs and moved to the beautiful island of Oahu, where she has been living for more than five years. She lives on the west side but is constantly taking mini-road trips across the island and visits the neighboring islands whenever she can getaway. She loves hiking, snorkeling, locally-grown coffee, and finding the best acai bowl on Oahu.
There’s no doubt about it: Maine is a hiker’s paradise. And while many of the most famous trails in Maine are quite difficult, there are some pretty incredible hikes perfect for those of all skill levels — especially in Maine’s only national park, Acadia. There’s little better than a day spent hiking in Acadia, but with more than 120 miles of terrific trails, it can be hard to choose just one. Featuring jaw-dropping coastal views, lush foliage, and incredible rock and cave formations, the Gorham Mountain Trail absolutely deserves a spot on your Maine hiking bucket list. Let’s take a look, shall we?
The trailhead for this popular hike is located off Park Loop Road in Acadia National Park. Note that Park Loop Road is closed December 1 through April 15, so you’ll want to visit before winter hits.
