Overview

During this self-guided or guided bike tour in New England, you bike the best of the diverse and dramatic Maine Coast. As you pedal the quiet beauty of Pemaquid Point, travel up the coast, exploring the east and west shores of Penobscot Bay and Blue Hill Bay, you will feel as if you have stepped into an Andrew Wyeth painting. No trip to Maine would be complete without a visit to the pristine environment of Acadia National Park and the scenic charm of Mt. Desert Island. Three itineraries are possible for this tour: an easy to-moderate and a moderate to difficult self-guided one. The moderate to difficult route is also offered as a guided tour. The day-to-day details vary so be sure to check the itineraries carefully. Don't forget that electric bikes are available, which changes the difficulty level of any tour.
