Acadia National Park is a park approximately 45,000 hectares of which are located on a hill a desert island and offers breathtaking scenic hiking, mountain biking, rock climbing, sea kayaking, canoing, and swimming. Mount desert island island was discovered by Samuel de Champlain, French explorer around the year 1609, which called it "Isle de Mount Desert" (island of bare mountains). Champlain called it Isle de mountain wilderness, because unlike most mountains located on the east coast of the United States tops of mountains are largely free of trees and other vegetation and therefore naked. This, together with the creation of the island accounts for its abundance of scenic resources and the ability to enjoy the scenic splendor easily. Mount desert island surrounded by pink granite coastline and steep bluffs around otter rocks against which the waves are often a pound, and because of the ice age glaciers that smoothed down the mountain peaks, a wealth of shallow glacial lakes that cut beautifully warm during the months of July and August.
These lakes provide a wonderful opportunity to pool together to Somes Sound easily viewed from the top of the mountain park. Mount desert island is about an hour drive from Bangor, Maine and is part of the real part of Downeast Maine. While the burning desert island forms the main part of Acadia National Park there are two other parts, and Schoodic Peninsula and Isle au Haut. The other areas of the park should not be missed as they offer some wonderful scenery and outdoor activities. This article will have more to say on the Schoodic Peninsula and Isle au Haut later.
This park has more than 100 miles of scenic hiking trails, from beginners to run very hard, about 52 miles of gravel covered carriage roads offer breathtaking experience of mountain biking, ice cut lakes that offer a refreshing and pleasant swimming throughout July and August. Mount Desert Island is a small island about 13 miles long by 11 miles wide. It's jagged coast, pounding surf, ice cut lakes, mountains that are largely bare of vegetation at the top and fog that often rolls in from Frenchman Bay at night enveloping the mountain peaks and provides the beauty of the island the air of mystery.
It was formed largely through the donations of wealthy land owners, such as John D. Rockefeller and George Dor who have summer cottages on the mountain desert island, and who donated their land to the National Park Service. This enables the burning desert island that contains a lot of privately owned land near the park. Mount desert island, therefore, the home towns of Bar Harbor, Northeast Harbor, Southwest Harbor and Seal Cove. Cities where there are hotels, fine restaurants, nightlife and for those who like to enjoy some benefits after a day outdoors
This makes it possible to hike the trail Jordan rocks, swim in the Sargent Mountain Pond between the peaks of mountains and Sargent Penobscott and be down in time to the 6:30 dinner reservation at a fine restaurant in Bar Harbor. I have not come across the second National Park where moguće.Restorani in these towns offer a wonderful lobster, blueberry pie (from fresh with wild blueberries), clam chowder, and the best blueberry muffins I've ever tasted in Jordans on Cottage Street in Bar Harbor. If your culinary desires are still not satisfied, you can always perform at the Jordan Pond House and enjoy homemade popovers and lemonade outside the above Jordan Pond and the beautiful surrounding mountains called Bubble Bubble North and South. These mountains are named after well-endowed girlfriend of one of the Jordans, the original owners of the pond house.
In addition to activities in the park are the whale watching cruises, nature cruises, seal watching cruises all the kids will enjoy. There is a Swans Island, Baker Island and the Cranberry Islands to explore. If you still need more you can do to leave Bar Harbor boat and be in Nova Scotia for about 4 hours. Bar Harbor is a shopper's paradise. For those seeking a quieter place to stay I would recommend Southwest Harbor and Northeast Harbor.
Schoodic Peninsula offers additional hiking trails and scenic bike ride on paved roads around the peninsula more than 13 miles in duljinu.Piknik Frazer Point area is a good place to park your car to start the bike loop around Schoodic Peninsula. Isle Au Haut is the most rugged and least developed part of Acadia. It does offer some wonderful hiking trails and a nice warm and swimmable pond also called Long Pond. Isle Au Haut can be reached by ferry from Stonington. Beautiful Scenic cycling can also be experienced in the Swan's Island, which is also accessible by ferry from Bass Harbor. You can take your car, your bike or both on the ferry. Whichever method you do, be sure to bring a swimsuit summer as a wonderful swimming available in the quarry at Swans Pond otoku.Kamenolom Pond was originally a granite quarry until 1920, when struck by underground streams, and granite quarrying.
During the winter, the carriage roads built by John D. Rockefeller and donated it to the park with lots of land can be used as a cross path trčanje.Zimske climate on Mount Desert Island is milder than one would expect given the moderating influence Frenchman bay.
With all the wonderful outdoor activities do not overlook the beautiful scenery here can be found on the road petlje.Pogled park from the top of Cadillac Mountain is not to be missed. Other notable attractions are the scenic Otter Cliffs, Thunder hole, a sand beach. Sunrise on Cadillac Mountain is a wonderful experience for those hardy enough to rise early. Cadillac Mountain is the most eastern point in the continental United States, so if you see the sunrise here you will see it before anyone else in the continental U.S. that day. Take the children after leaving the Jordans on Cottage Street in Bar Harbor for one incredible blueberry muffins and a fabulous blueberry pancakes. What to do in Acadia National Park, be warned. This experience is addicting. My wife and I first went to Acadia in 1987 for 5 days. In 1990 we brought our two young sons (8 years, and 5) with us and we were to visit the park every year, because for about 10 days in mid-August.
