+ They don't call it vacationland for nothing...

“Maine is one of the best destinations to reconnect with nature. “Vacationland” has been the [state’s] slogan … since 1936 and serves to promote the state’s reputation as the premier vacation destination. Visitors to Maine discover a unique natural setting with seemingly endless outdoor recreation opportunities.”

UMaine is located in beautiful Orono, which is consistently ranked as one of the safest college towns in the nation and is nearby to some of the nations greatest attractions for outdoor recreation, including being:

< 1 hour drive from Acadia National Park — one of the most visited national parks in the United States — that spans Maine’s beautiful rocky shoreline and pine tree forests for which the the state is known

~ 1 hour drive from the Appalachian Scenic Trail — the start of the 14-state-spanning Appalachian Trail
