Mount Katahdin Backpacking Trips |

At 5,271 feet, Mount Katahdin
is the highest peak in Maine. It stands as the northern most terminus of the
Appalachian Trail and by some accounts is the last true wilderness on the
East Coast. It is located in beautiful Baxter State Park and traversed by
remote hiking trails and amazing wildlife. It is a strenuous hike, but the
view at the top is worth every step of the trip.
Let Higher Pursuits plan,
arrange and guide a customized backpacking trip for your group to the
unforgettable Mount Katahdin in Baxter State Park, Maine. |
