Lighthouses, Covered Bridges, and Natural Wonders Details

When people think of Maine, many times it includes an image of an iconic lighthouse. It's not surprising since there are over 61 light stations along the coast including Portland Head Light which is the most photographed lighthouse in the United States. Some you can visit, some you can actually stay in (the keeper's house more accurately), and others are so remote that only fishermen or birds see them. The Chimani Guides includes details on 61 lighthouses throughout the coast. Maine has some of the best-preserved covered bridges in the country including the iconic Artist's Bridge near Sunday River Ski Resort - the most photographed and painted covered bridge in Maine. The Chimani Guides includes details on 11 covered bridges throughout the state. With a state the size of Maine, there are natural wonders in virtually every corner. Maine has numerous waterfalls, iconic mountain peaks, glacial erratics, and one of the few places in the country where you can see a "reversing fall". The Chimani Maine guide includes details on over 95 unique natural wonders throughout the state.
