Synopsis: The mountains and foothills of western Maine are a hiker's paradise, featuring some of the finest hiking terrain in the Eastern United States. Join Registered Maine Guide Doug Dunlap on more than two dozen excursions. Hikes range from quiet stream-side rambles and waterfall hikes to gut-busting ascents to high peaks with breezy open summits. There are short walks that will take an hour or less, and there are day-long treks, all rounded out with maps, practical tips and safety advice, and even suggestions for hiking with kids and dogs.
