They recently did a list of the most beautiful places in each state in America, and as any Mainer knows, we have many to choose from.

Their pick was Acadia National Park. Here is what they had to say about this iconic spot:

Known for its photogenic lighthouses, weathered pine trees, and sunrises atop Cadillac Mountain, Acadia National Park is an essential stop on any Maine road trip. The park also happens to house one of our favorite national park beaches: Sand Beach, a wide expanse of yellow sand with crystal-clear water.

Acadia National Park is located along the mid-section of the Maine coast, southwest of Bar Harbor. The park preserves about half of Mount Desert Island, part of the Isle au Haut, the tip of the Schoodic Peninsula, and portions of 16 smaller outlying islands. They welcome several million visitors each year.

The park contains Cadillac Mountain, which is the tallest mountain on the Atlantic Coast of the United States. It covers 49,075 acres or 76 square miles.

There are a ton of activities from spring through autumn, including car and bus touring along the park's paved loop road, hiking, bicycling, and horseback riding on carriage roads. Rock climbing, kayaking and canoeing on lakes and ponds, swimming at Sand Beach and Echo Lake, and sea kayaking and guided boat tours on the ocean.

Winter activities at Acadia include cross-country skiing, snowshoeing, snowmobiling, and ice fishing.

Get the family together and go exploring. For more information, check out the Acadia website
