20 Easy Hikes for Mainers Who Don’t Actually Like Hiking

92 MOOSE • May 1, 2023

Not all of us actually enjoy strenuous hikes or living on the edge, literally and figuratively. I personally love hiking but I have many friends who won't even entertain the idea. Lucky for all of us, there is a compromise. You don't need to go scale Katahdin to go on a hike; we have plenty of flat and easy walking trails and hikes that still offer beautiful panoramic views, gorgeous trails and scenery, and offer a lovely way to spend the day outside with loved ones, even the little kiddos and four-legged friends. I've thrown together a manageable list of easy hikes you can do around Maine.
