Maine ❤️ Hiking/Walking And The Reversing Falls Park
How many hikes can I possibly acquire while in this gorgeous state?
Well, since time is limited I have to choose carefully. I love the App ‘Alltrails’ to locate hikes/walks with in my vicinity and the ratings of each hike. It also shows the lengh and difficulty which is perfect for me. As of now I prefer 2 hour outings (compared to 5 and 6 hours in Colorado), and I like easy and moderate. My body is not up for difficult and challenging right now. See my blog post about my bike misadventures the other day! One has to learn their limitations and I am learning mine the hard way.
Also, in the App I can download the trail to view offline. This is absolutely wonderful for me! Everytime I get disoriented in the forest this map will get me back on a trail.
Anyway, I chose the Reversing Falls Park for my latest home and it was stunning and did not disappoint. It was labeled a moderate hike but when I saw a guy in his late 20’s hopple towards me in crutches I figured it was doable fur my bruised legs 😉
Here are some stats about this beautiful landmark:
Reversing Falls Park is a municipal park in Pembroke, Maine. It is located at Mahar Point, the northern point of a narrows separating Dennys Bay from Cobscook Bay in far eastern Maine. The narrows are subject to a reversal of current twice a day, owing to the area's unusually high tides. In addition to viewing this action, the park is also well suited for wildlife viewing.[2]
The area in the park vicinity is also archaeologically sensitive, as the site of Native American settlements in the area's prehistory. It was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1990
