About
It's busy, but we're glad you're here
During high visitation, you may experience delays entering the park, and increased travel times and congestion on scenic drives. Our best advice is to have back-up plans for your day. Between 10 am and 4 pm, and particularly on Cadillac Mountain for sunrise or sunset, destinations throughout Acadia can exceed capacity, and rangers may restrict access temporarily in the interest of public safety.
Directions
From Boston take I-95 north to Augusta, Maine, then Route 3 east to Ellsworth, and on to Mount Desert Island. For an alternate route, continue on I-95 north to Bangor, Maine, then take Route 1A east to Ellsworth. In Ellsworth, take Route 3 to Mount Desert Island.
