I will be hiking as many weekends as I can all over Maine as long as the weather allows for a reasonably comfortable hike. This is my first year in Maine and from what I can tell the comfortable, relatively speaking, hiking season starts about now and goes until late October. I'm new to Maine so I'm open to suggestions about routes. So far I've been hiking along the AT for a couple days at a time and have completed most of the 100 mile wilderness but there are probably many other great hikes out there. I love to have company or just suggestions for hikes.

Grafton Notch SP has the AT along with many other trails, some quite rugged.

I haven't been that far south on the AT in Maine. From what I can see from Google maps it looks like an interesting area with dense forests, not uncommon around here, and odd rock formations. I'll check this out later this month. Thanks for the idea. It's finally warm enough to go out without too winter gear.

Thanks for the suggestion. I will be hiking from the New Hampshire border to whatever point along the AT I can get to in Maine over the course of a long weekend. There are lots of side trails that I will check out as well.

It's a great area. Try the Baldpate Mountain Trail, excellent views and rugged.

Glad to be of help, good hiking!
