These are popular hikes in the fall when Maine's countryside blushes with autumn color.
Boating and fishing on the lakes and rivers in the summer are popular activities for local anglers. Wildlife watching the more than 200 species can be enjoyed all year-round. Hunting for deer and ruffed grouse occurs each fall.
