Magical Maine: Sunset Hike on Hermit Island

This may be one of my favorite hikes in Maine. It showcases all the things that make Maine special. During the off-season, the campground on Hermit Island closes, but the trails open up to the public (yes, solo adventure time!). I sometimes see people walking their dogs on the campground roads, but I've personally never seen another soul once I set out on the island trails (unless I brought that person with me haha). This is a little over 20 minutes from Bath, so about an hour from Portland, Maine. I highly recommend checking it out if you are in the Midcoast area. No crowds. No paid parking. Just Maine is all its magical glory....woods and ocean and rock formations that will blow your mind!
During the winter, that cold wind whips pretty harsh on the coast, so definitely bring something to cover your face, and layers as always :) totally worth it!
Thanks, as always, for coming along with me. I'm so happy to share this one especially.
This is the main loop, but you'll be able to see the trails that criss-cross the island as well. Definitely explore that area as well:

    Hermit Island looks amazing. The views are so incredible. It was fun to see the kite surfer out on the water. You chose a beautiful day to be out on the island. The trails look fantastic. The light this time of the year, with the long shadows on the beach is so beautiful. I always enjoy stunning sunsets and you captured an outstanding sunset. It is so nice to see the reflection of the sun in the water. This truly was a fantastic video. Thank you, my friend for always sharing your amazing adventures. Enjoy the rest of your Christmas holidays. ✨✨🎄❄🎄✨✨

    Your comments are the best!!! I knew it was a special hike when I was out there, one of those where the weather conditions, time of day, and having the trail to yourself just line up ✨✨✨

    @@tinwenwalks Thank you for everything that you do. You share such amazing video. I really liked this adventure. The sunset was incredible. I really love the light on the beach. I agree it was a very special hike. It must have been amazing to be on the trail be yourself. I do worry about you though, when I hear you are alone. Please stay safe. Take care, my friend. 😊✨✨
