Mt. Katahdin and Baxter State Park, Maine Adventure Travel
The rugged North Woods of Maine offer thousands of square miles of remote wilderness adventure both on water and on land. Staying in a rustic and no-frills sporting camp is both an adventure and a trip back 100 or more years in time. Expert some fantastic fishing, licenses included.
Adventure travel on the Maine North Woods rivers can be rafting the Class IV and V rapids of the West Branch of the Penobscot River or a multi-day canoe or kayak expedition on the Allagash and St. John Rivers. The classic Maine North Woods guided adventure vacation is spending four or more days canoeing through the lakes, rivers and streams of the wilderness. Expect some Class II rapids and some portage and expect to see lots of wildlife.
Moosehead Lake and Maine North Woods Adventure Travel
An adventure vacation in the Moosehead Lake area would not be the same without seeing some moose. There are 4WD and canoe moose safaris, there are early morning mountain bike trips and even by float planes. In the Maine North Woods planes landing on the water are no big deal – the lake itself is the landing strip and the pilot knows where the moose are hiding.
An adventure vacation around Moosehead Lake, may include mountain biking, hiking, canoeing and kayaking, usually from mid-May. In the winter months, a real adventure is the 160-mile snowmobile trip on Moosehead Trail, circling the lake.
