The expansive carriage roads at Acadia National Park are closed as the spring thaw gets underway. The 45 miles of carriage roads tend to close annually during the time of year known as “mud season” in Maine, and this year is no different. The closure will help protect the integrity of the roads so that park-goers will be able to enjoy them once conditions dry out. Walking, bicycling or riding horses is prohibited on the roads until further notice, according to the park’s website.
