Mt A in York, ME offers varied trails for different skill levels and times.
We’ll plan on hiking the second hill and the first hill which is commonly called Mt A
The distance will be close to 4 miles.
The hiking time will be between 3-1/2 to 4 hours for a leisurely pace.
You will need to bring a lunch, snacks and two liters of water. As with many trails we will carry in/carry out.
Hiking boots or shoes are strongly recommended as are hiking poles for some sections that may be viewed by our hikers as slightly steep.
Your backpack should have a first aid kit and several layers including a waterproof top, and please bring an extra pair of socks.
Because the black flies are out I recommend bringing a bug net for your head, you can purchase them in outdoor stores such as REI.
We’ll hike as a group and the pace is dictated by the group. We can always shorten or increase the hike depending on the group.
