Mt. Battie in Camden Hills State Park

Today my son and I hiked up Mt. Battie along the Mt. Battie Road.  Much of the road was covered in ice, so we used snowshoes the majority of the time.  It was around 34 degrees and sunny.

We climbed the tower at the summit and were rewarded with great views of the coast and surrounding mountains.

It was 3 miles round trip from the lower parking lot to the summit.  It was a decent climb but not overly strenuous.

Park entrance fees were collected ($4 for Maine residents) and facilities (outhouses) were open. 

Here is our trail map.
