A Bunch of Georgetown Trails

Here’s a great map with all the trails and preserves in Georgetown to explore.

Popham Beach

Located on the peninsula just south of Georgetown is Phippsburg, home to Fort Popham and Popham beach.

Morse Mountain to Sewall Beach

This is a lovely trail in May and later on in September thru the winter. It gets quite buggy in the summer. Great for a leisurely walk or a run that ends in the water at Sewall Beach.

Thorne Head Preserve

A big preserve with lots of trails along the kennebec and the merrymeeting bay.

Devil’s Back Trail

Located on Orr’s Island in Harpswell, about 30 minutes from the Dwellings is the Devil’s back preserve, comprised of two beautiful trails.

Squirrel Point & Bald Head

Located in Arrowsic just a 10 minute drive from the dwellings is squirrel Point and Bald Head trails.

Dodge Point Preserve

Located in Newcastle, about a 25 minute drive from the dwellings. Great trails for running and walking that ends by the water.

Located a few minutes north of Camden on U.S. Route 1. Renowned for the panoramic view of Camden Harbor and Penobscot Bay from the top of Mt. Battie, which inspired Edna St. Vincent Millay's poem "Renascence," the park still inspires wonder in visitors today.

Pemaquid Point Lighthouse

Pemaquid point is a little drive away up the coast about 40 or so minutes in Bristol Maine. Beautiful dramatic scenery.

Giant’s Stairs

Named for its interesting geologic history, the Giant’s Stairs trail follows the rocky coastline with gorgeous views of eastern Casco Bay, often with crashing waves glinting in the sunlight. On any given day you might see rafts of ducks, foraging harbor seals, or a lobster boat hauling traps.
