Maine is filled to the brim with natural resources to enjoy and protect. Opportunities to watch and hunt wildlife are amply available in Maine, from majestic moose to whales to small game, bears and deer. Maine’s beach region, located in the southwest corner of the state, offers beautiful coastline and fun small-town experiences. Portland, South Portland, and Westbrook are the three largest cities in the area. From Kingfield along the Carrabassett River, High Peaks Scenic Byway, mountains, lakes, and state parks guide the way. Home to the Appalachian Trail, Saddleback Mountain, and Rangeley Lake, Maine is the perfect destination for those looking to spend time recreating in the woods, lakes, and streams. From the midcoast and Islands area, you can step foot on a rocky beach and moments later climb into a deep forest. In the center of the state, find world-renowned Mount Katahdin and the continuing Appalachian Trail. Moosehead Lake, the largest lake in the state, can also be found here. 170 miles of majestic Kennebec River flow from Moosehead Lake to the Atlantic. Hunting in this region is exciting and varied, with both large and small game available in abundance throughout the rural region and extensive wildlands. Opportunities for both fishing and hunting are unmatched in the area of American coastline farthest to the Northeast. “The Crown of Maine,” Aroostook County in the northern area of the state, is the largest county east of the Mississippi, with natural beauty and opportunities for recreation and adventure year-round.
