Discover

Old Road Right-of-Way is a trail in York County, Maine, offering travelers a reason to step away from a drive and spend time on foot.

That language can shape the visit without turning the walk into a history lesson; the experience begins with following a trail and noticing how a route guides your attention.

On an outdoor stop, let the path set the pace. Walking gives you time to notice changes in direction, how the route appears from one stretch to the next, and the small choices involved in moving through a landscape.
