Trails with Trailhead Parking in Maine

Maine has 117 trails with trailhead parking in this directory, across 37 cities and towns — Bangor, Scarborough, Portland, Brunswick and 33 more. A trailhead lot you can actually park in — and the ones that fill by mid-morning.

Labels come from each trail's own listing, its website and runners' reviews. Conditions change with the weather and the season, and gates and lights follow the park's own hours, so check a recent review before you drive out.
