For the winter season, skiing and snowshoe trails are open at many state parks and they’re offering several dates for free equipment.
In addition to its variety of state parks, Maine also boasts Acadia National Park and 8 natural wildlife reserves. They stretch across the state from the Aroostook National Wildlife Preserve down to Fort McClary State Historic Site in Kittery.
