Acadia National Park on Maine's Mount Desert Island is the crown jewel of New England's natural heritage, America's first national park established east of the Mississippi River. Its dramatic mix of granite peaks, glacier-carved fjords, rocky headlands, and dense spruce forest rising from the Atlantic coast creates a landscape of extraordinary variety. Cadillac Mountain, at 1,530 feet the highest point on the US East Coast, is where the first sunrise in America is seen for much of the year.
