"For brave souls willing to venture into a frigid Maine winter, the reward is striking views of Mount Desert Island’s ragged Atlantic coastline. Follow the scenic Ocean Drive—plowed from Schooner Head down to the Fabbri Memorial during snowy months—for the best vistas. Snowshoers and cross-country skiers will also love the park’s 45 miles of groomed, crushed-stone carriage roads, which offer some of the best winter hiking in the US." - Emily Pennington
