What are the Carriages of Acadia?<\/span><\/h2>\n

John D. Rockefeller Jr. donated 10,000 acres<\/strong> of land on Mount Desert Island. Included were 57 miles of carriage roads that he developed and appreciated at the National Park Service. A favorite experience in Acadia National Park is to board a Wild Belgian draft horse or Percherons from Wildwood Stables for a tour of these broken stone roads, which took over 25 years to build.<\/span><\/p>\n

The Rockefeller Carriage Road Network<\/a><\/strong> is an engineering feat. You can see stone walls and some of the 17 stone bridges that were built.<\/span><\/p>\n

Carriages of Acadia operates one- or two-hour narrated sightseeing tours, taking visitors into the forested interior of Acadia. Carriage rides are available from late May to late October. Reservations are strongly recommended.<\/span><\/p>\n
