If you're headed to Acadia for some hiking, biking, or whatever, get this little guide book. Inexpensive as it is, it gives a nice overview of the trails complete with fold out maps. It was quite helpful to us when we cycled throughout the park.

This is a very detailed description of biking the carriage trails of Acadia. The info seems good but the format and presentation seem pretty dated. As I could find nothing more recent, this account is just fine- as long as you're not expecting color and cutting edge.

We got this book for our trip to Acadia. Overall we liked it very much and found it handy for the carriage roads. It fits in your pocket. One thing the book lacks is details of how trails (outside of the carriage roads) interconnect. We started on a carriage road and decided to head off on a trail, however, we managed and didn't get lost. We liked this book for being brief and to the point. You can also buy this book in Acadia National Park and some of the outdoor shops in Bar Harbor.
