Though short, Route 1 isn't called the Million Dollar Scenic Byway for nothing. At only 8 miles long, the highway offers numerous scenic turnouts for visitors to stop for a photograph, or to simply take in the views of the infamous mountains and lakes. Along with rolling farmlands, visitors will notice incredible lookouts for well-known points of interest such as Peekaboo and Katahdin Mountain, and the many picturesque Chiputneticook lakes of Maine, including the Brackett, Deering, and East Grand. The water bodies here are known for their prime fishing, and the route is known for perfect views and quaint historic sites.
