Portland 20s Crew: Outdoor Adventures and Hangouts

9 mile hike with 2,191 feet of elevation gain. PACK water, lunch, and micro spikes. Carpooling available from Portland. Can get a food after hike.

This loop will reward hikers will great views from Ocean Lookout, Mount Megunticook, and the Maiden Cliff Overlook. Camden, Penobscot Bay, and islands off the coast are all visible from
these high points.

The Maiden Cliff is marked with a large steel cross for Elenora French, a young girl who fell from the cliff in 1862.

The Portland 20s Crew took advantage of the New England Outdoor Center’s Black Friday deal, which offered white water rafting for $99 per person when booked before December 3. That is why we booked this trip early.

You can still join for $119 per person and be part of the trip.
