A gateway to Acadia National Park
Trenton, on Maine's northernmost Atlantic shore, is a picturesque gateway to the beautiful Acadia National Park. Caressed by breezy Atlantic currents and nestled on the tree-lined, rocky shore of the Mount Desert Narrows, Trenton is the last stop before the roadway to Mount Desert Island, Frenchman Cove and Bar Harbor. Choose a Trenton vacation rental to explore this idyllic coastal region, spend long lunches in rustic lobster restaurants and hike some of the most beautiful trails in the USA in Acadia National Park.
Family fun in Trenton
Trenton has a small waterpark and amusement park with go-karts – great if you're staying at your Trenton vacation rental with kids. The majority of local shops and nightlife can be found across the narrows at Bar Harbor, including Mount Desert Island's only vineyard and winery. This pretty coastal town offers plenty of fun family activities. Hire a kayak to paddle around the bay or book tickets on a lobster boat tour or whale-watching excursion. Depending on the season, you might spot humpback whales, as well as porpoises, seals, dolphins or North Atlantic puffins.
Unique beach experiences in Trenton
Visit the Acadia National Park visitor center in Trenton or on the tiny Thompson Island as you cross over to Mount Desert Island to pick up trail maps and family-friendly nature guides. Once across, Sand Beach – framed by tree-covered spits of rock – makes for a picture-perfect pirate cove. On sunny days, take a picnic and brave the chilly waters for a fab family day out. Here, you can pick up the Great Head Trail for a short but challenging hike with commanding ocean views. Or stick around until darkness falls for a magical experience spotting the phosphorescent glow of algae on the rocks and sand by starlight.
Trenton's wild coastline
The rugged landscapes along Maine's rocky Atlantic Coast offer great opportunities for hiking, biking, horseback riding, nature watching and fishing. Acadia National Park is a place of glacier-carved beauty and incredible sea-sculpted rocky coves and sea stacks. It's home to Cadillac Mountain, a mass of quartz and feldspar-studded granite, and the tallest mountain on the US Atlantic coast. Hike the park's trails, rocky beaches and pristine woodlands for incredible ocean vistas, diverse birdwatching opportunities and the wide variety of coastal and woodland fauna and flora – including beaver, peregrine falcon, hawks, loons and seabirds.
