Mejores Tours de Parque Nacional Acadia desde Bostón

The scenic incomparable beauty of the rocky Maine coast is just one of the many highlights of the first national park established in the Eastern United States. Acadia National Park was started in 1919 as Lafayette National Park from the idea of landscape architect Charles Eliot and its name was changed to in 1929 to take the name of the French colony that Maine was once included in. Its Cadillac Mountain is the tallest coastal mountain in the eastern portion of the U.S. at a height of 1,528 feet and its carriage trails were financed and designed by tycoon John D. Rockefeller, Jr. Other notable sights in the 47,453-acre park are Bass Harbor Head Lighthouse, Mount Desert Island, Somes Sound, Isle au Haut, Wild Gardens of Acadia and Islesford Historical Museum.
