Bikeway (125 & 211 miles)
Maine’s Bold Coast runs from
the Schoodic Peninsula to Lubec
and then along the St. Croix
River to the Canadian border
community of Calais. The vast
and beautiful scenic byway and
bikeway pass through blueberry
barrens shaped by glaciers and
ancient granite formations
created by the ocean’s tides.
Stop in working harbor towns
from the time of sea captains
and lumber barons.

Discover a 10,000-year-old
native ecosystem formed by the
glaciers that carved Maine’s bold
coast. Heavy with ripe blueberries
in August, come September, the
barrens turn brilliant shades of
red in autumn. Experience the
wild blueberry for yourself: book
a farm stay or tour, stop at a
roadside stand or visit the region’s
farmers’ markets, or take part in
a pick-your-own experience.
