Acadia

One of the great features about Acadia National Park (ANP) is that it is located within easy driving distance from many population centers in the North East. This makes it relatively inexpensive (with regard to the cost of fuel) to get here.

And, because Mount Desert Island and ANP are small areas it is easy to get around on the convenient free transportation provided on the island and inside the park.

Sooooooo, once you get to ANP you can park your car and not use it for the entire time you are here. And, you can visit all the popular attractions, trails, campgrounds and villages on the island without getting in your car. And, the transportation is “green” electric buses running on a regular and convenient schedule. You can even bring your bike along on the bus and then enjoy riding the Carriage Trails, the Park Loop Road as well as most of the rest of the island on your bike.

ANP is a fantastic way to take an unforgettable vacation without spending a fortune (relative as that may be) on fuel. You can also fly to the area!

Go for it - I am sure you will be glad you did.
