Acadia National Park, located on the coast of the state of Maine, is one of the few national parks with an iconic carriage road system. The carriage roads within the park total to more than 45 miles and are an excellent way to enter the heart of Acadia, whether on foot, by bike, or in a horse drawn carriage.
