Greetings from Acadia National Park

Every year we have to go to Acadia National Park hiking. It is one of the most beautiful parks ever. The scenery at the top of Cadillac mountain is always breathtaking. It is a place we never get tired of. We are thankful that these national parks exist.

Sincerely,
Linda

Acadia National Park

Among the park’s granite peaks is Cadillac Mountain, which at 1,530 feet stands as the tallest mountain on the Atlantic coast.
