TAKE A HIKE THIS SUMMER
CAMDEN WINDWARD HOUSE BED AND BREAKFAST JOINS WITH COASTAL MOUNTAIN LAND TRUST IN HELPING YOU TAKE A HIKE!
Camden Maine is a fantastic coastal village where you can park your car and go hiking. The Coastal Mountain Land Trust, since 1986, has preserved more than 7,800 acres of hikable land in the Mid Coast of Maine. New this summer, the Land Trust introduces The Take A Hike program. This program offers hiking suggestions from easy with a gradual climb to strenuous. There is a hiking option for all levels of wayfarers.
Views on the hikes offer opportunities to see historic sod roofed houses, organic blueberry fields, majestic lakes and unforgettable seascapes.
The program suggests 3 easy steps to taking a hike:
1. Pick your hike
2. Hop in your car or call a taxi
3. Lace up your walking shoes and enjoy.
The Camden Windward House Bed and Breakfast will provide you with all trail maps and a relaxing place to come back, nap and take a shower. The Camden Windward House offers several Soft Adventure packages and considers this area program a great addition to the Soft adventure options of the Mid Coast. Innkeeper Kristen Bifulco stated, “This organized hiking program is the missing link to the already established mid coast adventure activities.”

With miles of hiking trails and wonderful scenic vistas, Camden Hills State Park is a must visit attraction in Camden Maine.
Walk through the backyard garden, onto Megunticook Street to begin your hike… Camden Hills State Park has 30 miles of hiking trails with access from five major trailheads; the Mt. Battie trail begins/ends at the end of Megnuticook Street, which is the street that backs the Camden Windward House Bed & Breakfast, about a two and half block walk up to the trail. Camden Hills State Park is a low set of mountains in the towns of Camden, Rockport and Lincolnville. There are incredible views of Penobscot Bay and the Atlantic Ocean. Parts of the trail are very steep. Skiing and snowmobiling trails also exist in the park.
