Baxter Day Hiking

Enjoy hiking in the breathtaking beauty of Maine’s Baxter State Park without carrying a fully loaded pack on your back. These trips will set up a base-camp and determine each day’s itinerary according to the ambition of the group. 

There are a ton of beautiful trails for trips to explore in Baxter State Park! Groups can opt into more challenging day hikes to seek out scenic vistas before returning to their base camp in the park. Or, trip groups can cover less mileage on gentler terrain, choosing destinations based on possible swimming holes or scenic waterfalls. Trips based in the northern end of the park will have the opportunity to canoe in South Branch Pond.
