Acadia National Park
Mount Desert Island + Schoodic Peninsula
Acadia National Park sprawls across 47,000 acres along the Gulf of Maine / Atlantic coast, primarily on Maine's Mount Desert Island. Woodland, rocky beaches, and glacier-scoured granite peaks such as Cadillac Mountain, the highest point on the United States East Coast, mark its landscape—the terrain is in a transition zone between temperate deciduous and northern coniferous forests.
