But if you’re looking for something extra-special make your way to Cutler and the Bold Coast trail to enjoy one of the most incredible trails in the state. Not near the region? We promise it’s worth the trip!

The Bold Coast Trail can be accessed all year, but people believe it’s best between May and October to avoid any difficult weather. But, of course, it’s Maine so maybe some chill is part of the fun!
