Circle The Entirety Of Monhegan Island On This 4.4-Mile Loop Trail With Incredible Craggy Views
Whether you live in Maine or just love to visit, we recommend making ample time for nature. That could mean tackling a tall peak, doing some boating, or simply taking in the fresh air of your very own neighborhood. It could also mean taking some time to enjoy one of the most beautiful trails in the state. If you’re up for that, you’ll want to check out this route!
Located in Lincoln Country off the coast of the Bristol and Boothbay Harbor area, Monhegan Island offers a small community on a small island with the most quintessentially Maine craggy coast.
If you take the ferry and manage to complete the hike in just the right amount of time you'll even have some wiggle room to head to the local brewery for a pint before getting on the next ferry back to the mainland!
The Monhegan Island Cliff Trail is accessible year-round, but it’s considered best from March through October. Each season offers something new so you’ll want to check it out a few times throughout the year if you can. Have a dog you love to have adventures with? Bring them along, just be sure to keep them on a leash. You can learn more about the trail by checking out alltrails.com.
Michelle has lived in many places, but counts Maine as one of the best. In addition to the smell of ocean water in the air on rainy days in Portland, she loves puppies, photography, funny people, the Maine Red Claws, traveling, fresh tomatoes, Cambodia and filling out forms.
