4Acadia National Park, Maine
On the rugged coast of Maine lies Acadia National Park, a landscape of rocky shorelines, granite peaks, and dense forests. The park is home to Cadillac Mountain, the highest point on the U.S. East Coast, where visitors can enjoy stunning views of the Atlantic Ocean and the surrounding islands. In the fall, Acadia’s forests come alive with brilliant shades of red, orange, and gold, creating one of the most beautiful autumn displays in the country. The park’s dramatic coastline, with its crashing waves and secluded coves, adds to its appeal. Visitors can hike along the park’s scenic trails, explore Jordan Pond by kayak, or relax on the sandy shores of Sand Beach. Acadia’s unique blend of coastal beauty and mountain scenery makes it a gem of the East Coast.
