In the backyard is Mount Battie in Camden Hills State Park with panoramic, calendar-worthy views of Penobscot Bay. Mt. Megunticook, the loftiest hill on the mainland, is just a moderate climb away. The trail to Maiden’s Cliff reaches a rock outcropping that looms 800 feet over Megunticook Lake.
Some facts about Camden:
• The picturesque harbor village is so quintessentially New England that the blockbuster 1950s movie Peyton Place was filmed on the town streets.
• Many of Camden’s signature attractions—the library, the village green, the opera house—were contributed by wealthy summer visitors.
• Summer is still the busiest time of Camden’s year and leaf peepers crowd the viewpoints in fall. But don’t miss winter, when the U.S. National Toboggan Championships barrelthe Camden Snow Bowl, America’s only toboggan chute.
