Acadia National Park, Maine
One of our main ideas in Acadia was to bicycle the carriage roads which are a unique aspect of this park. These were created by Rockefeller Jr. for his own horse drawn carriages and then were donated to create the park. They are now a bicyclist’s paradise. Though biker beware – as the ranger told us, none of them are flat, and she was right. Lots of ups and downs on well packed wide roads (enough for two horse carriages to pass). It was like hiking through the forest – just a lot faster on a bicycle – except of course when you went up a steep hill.
