Journey to the wild beauty of Acadia National Park, the first national park established east of the Mississippi River • Walk along the park’s historic carriage roads, a scenic network of gravel byways built by John D. Rockefeller and closed to cars • Follow the trails around Jordan Pond, with views of the iconic twin Bubble Mountains • Climb South Bubble Mountain and see Balance Rock, a massive glacier erratic remarkable for its precarious placement on the mountain’s edge • For more miles, ascend Penobscot Mountain and take in sweeping views of Frenchman Bay and the outer islands • Kick back at Terramor Outdoor Resort, a basecamp in the woods with stylish canvas tents surrounded by the peaceful stillness of Maine woods.

Explore Mount Desert Island, cycling beneath spruce and fir trees and along the shores of Somes Sound • Experience Acadia’s historic carriage roads from a new perspective—on bike—riding over stone bridges and passing Eagle Lake and Jordan Pond • Trade handlebars for paddles and kayak in Bar Harbor, admiring scenes of lobster boats, sailboats and maybe even a curious seal.

Start the day with a spin along Acadia’s Ocean Drive and take in lovely coastal views and the cliffs of Thunder Hole and Otter Point • Pass the turquoise waters of Sand Beach and keep your eyes peeled for seabirds and seals • Take on the steady climb to the top of Cadillac Mountain, the highest on the North Atlantic seaboard and reputedly the first place on US soil to see the rising sun • Stretch your legs with a yoga session at our retreat • Relish fresh coastal flavors over a celebratory dinner.

Hike the rugged Great Head Peninsula, where cliffs drop to the Atlantic and ocean views stretch for miles • Walk through windswept evergreens and along pink granite ledges so distinctive of Acadia’s shoreline • Visit Sand Beach, one of Maine’s few natural sandy beaches, and maybe even brave a quick dip in the chilly Atlantic.
