Question

If I'm extending my trip in Maine, where should I visit?

Answer

Maine is called Vacationland for a reason -- there's so much to see. A couple of recs: (1) Drive up to Acadia National Park. You can bike on carriage roads built for John D. Rockefeller, see the sunrise from the top of Cadillac Mountain, and explore oceanside Bar Harbor. (2) Hike Maine’s largest peak, Katahdin, and explore Baxter State Park (known for moose). Stop at Dysart’s Truck Stop in Hermon for pie on the way!
