3Acadia National Park
Maine’s Acadia National Park is one of the best parks to visit during spring. You avoid the summertime crowds, and can still go hiking and enjoy the budding new flora and newborn wildlife. You can also enjoy the tallest peak located on the East Coast–Cadillac Mountain.
This mountain is also arguably the first place in the country where you can see the sunrise for almost six months. Free of summer tourists, you can hike there and also The Beehive. Mind you, the latter includes ladders and iron rungs that are not exactly ideal for anyone who is afraid of heights.
If you’re not big on hiking, cruise the scenic 27-mile Park Loop Road. In fact, springtime is perfect for biking here as well! Beautiful Bar Harbor reopens in the spring so be sure to visit there too!
