Acadia Byway  Wind Your Way Through Arcadia National Park
Printable Area  Fresh lobster feasts and the chance to be among
the first people in America to see the sunrise are just a few of
the reasons to put the Acadia Byway in Maine on your road-trip
radar.  The 40-mile route is said to take 4 hours to fully
enjoy. But you could easily spend an entire week in the region,
basing yourself in Bar Harbor and planning day trips in the form
of hikes, scenic drives, rock-climbing adventures and schooner
cruises.  Designated an All-American Highway by the US
Department of Transportation, the Acadia Byway starts at Route
3, just south of Trenton on Maine's North-central coast, where
you'll cross the bridge onto Mount Desert Island.  The winding
route takes in granite peaks, craggy outcroppings, coastal
fishing villages and lush old-growth forests as it snakes along
the coastline, circumnavigating Acadia National Park (the only
national park in America's Northeast) and Cadillac Mountain.
