KENNEBEC JOURNAL • December 3, 2021
A mere 15 miles north of the capital hubbub of Augusta, a pleasant drive via Route 27, is where you’ll find the Belgrade Lakes and the Kennebec Highlands. Recreational opportunities abound in this bucolic region, and hikers especially will discover plenty to their liking thanks to the conservation and trail building work of the 7 Lakes Alliance. “This winter will be a real important time for people to get outside,” said Laura Rose Day, 7 Lakes’ president and CEO. I couldn’t agree more. Hope to see you out on the snowy trails of the Kennebec Highlands or elsewhere. At a distance, of course.~ Carey Kish
