Walk the boardwalk, jog the bog at stunning Saco Heath in Saco

The 1-mile trail begins in the woods before the boardwalk begins, winding its way through the trees until the views open up in the bog and the boardwalk can shoot out straight ahead. It's mostly flat the whole way, making this trek an easy walk/hike for folks who want to take in the Maine outdoors in leisurely fashion.

During our visit to the 96-acre Thorne Head Preserve in Bath, we didn't intend to go poking around inside the hideout (and history) of a murderer. That just sort of happened.

Adventuring in Rangeley: Hiking, paddling, and waterfalls all over the place

The wonders of Rangeley. There are way too many to count - and certainly too many to experience in a five-day camping trip - but I did my best last month to cram in as much hiking, paddling, and waterfall-hunting as I could.

Hike the Cliff Trail for water views & fairy houses during the Harpswell Hiking Challenge June 1-2!!

Woods are good. Water views are wonderful. Toss in a fairy house village and you've got yourself a fine hiking adventure. The Cliff Trail in Harpswell is a splendid 2.3-mile loop that runs along Strawberry Creek on one side and has stunning views of Long Reach from 150-foot cliffs on the other side. (With a scenic, roosty hike in between.)

70s-era workout stations + easy hiking trails at Beaver Park in Lisbon

This family-focused park off Cotton Road has seven miles of easy-going trails, as well as two regulation softball diamonds, picnic areas, and swimming ponds. But the neatest thing at Beaver Park, in my pull-up-fantasizing opinion, is the one-mile fitness trail, complete with 70s-era workout stations.

Fall at Maine Huts and Trails: Self-service season is a great time to visit

Late fall is an ideal time to visit Maine Huts and Trails. It's self-service season, which means you'll bring and prepare your own food, and the rates are much lower, too.
