SOUTH BRANCH PONDS FAMILY CAMPING &
HIKING TRIPS
After Chimney Pond campground, the second
most spectacular campground in Baxter Park is South Branch Pond.
Situated on a gravel beach on the north shore of Lower South Branch Pond, it
has good swimming, canoeing, and excellent climbing trails from the
campground. The surrounding mountains are lower than the Katahdin
range to the south, so this fits more closely the requirements of family
groups.
We plan to stay
all three nights in tent sites or leanto shelters on or near the pond.
From the campground there are opportunities for several different day hikes
to beautiful wilderness settings for all ages to hike. The canoeing on
the pond is relaxing and the fishing can be excellent. For plenty of solitude, this is a great wilderness
camping experience in the north Maine
woods!
3 NIGHT / 4 DAY

$495.00/PERSON
