We Tested the New ‘Acadia Nat’l Park’ App Created by a Mainer

 Tom Tash, a web developer and owner of Acadia East Campground in Gouldsboro, ME has created an app for all Acadia National Park explorers. There are a few app options when it comes to national parks, hiking trails, and even specific to Acadia National Park, but when we heard that this particular one was created by an actual Mainer, we had to test it out.

If you would like to test this app out for yourself, you'll want to make sure that you are downloading the correct one because as I shared, there are several options. It is currently only available on Apple products (iOS), so if you downloaded it on your Samsung, that is not the app we are discussing here. It has been promised that Android availability will be coming soon.

Search "Acadia Nat'l Park." You will see the logo that is shared above. You can also confirm the developer, Pocket Parks Campground, LLC and powered by Acadia East Campground.

Here's What We Love About the Mainer Created "Acadia Nat'l Park" App

1.) All the links you need for Acadia are aggregated nicely on this app and the maps are GPS enabled.

Navigate through Acadia with ease. Our maps are integrated with GPS technology, making it simple to find trails, mountains, and essential services like ranger stations. Filter options allow you to customize your map view to show trails, activities, and more according to your interests.

2.) The app has a drop pin feature on the park map section where it will inform you of all trails near where you dropped the pin on the map. There are over 135 trails available on this app within Acadia National Park!

Our app provides everything from trail length and difficulty to scenic viewpoints and nearby attractions. Whether you're looking for a leisurely walk or a challenging hike, you'll find all the details you need to choose the right path.

3.) Gotta eat! The biggest challenge for someone new to the area and this beautiful national park is not knowing where to eat or even more desired, find a place to eat at one of the most recommended.

Explore over 80 local restaurants and amenities around Acadia National Park and Bar Harbor. Our app includes details on each location, so you can find the perfect spot to dine or relax after a day of adventure.

There are many other features offered on the app including trail conditions and real-time updates on weathers, closures, etc. Let me know what you think about the app in the Facebook post below!
