While in 'Keag, plan on visiting the
Mattawamkeag Wilderness Park Campground
At Mattawamkeag Wilderness Park there is something for everybody: for hikers, nearly 15 miles of wilderness trails; for the angler, good bass, salmon and trout fishing along the Mattawamkeag River; and for the canoe enthusiast, some 60 miles of Mattawamkeag River, including stretches of exciting "white water" from Island Falls and Danforth, as well as in the vicinity of the park itself. Indeed the river offers some of the finest canoe runs in the state, although still relatively undiscovered.Once visitors reach the park, they find camping convenience in a wilderness setting. The facilities include 50 campsites, 11 Adirondack log shelters, bathroom facilities, hot showers, a small store, and a large recreation building with a comfortable Maine fireplace. Picnic facilities are available for day visitors.
The park is centrally located in Eastern Maine, with rapid access to other area attractions. As you plan for your family vacation, why not consider a visit to Mattawamkeag Wilderness Park Campground. One hour from Baxter State Park.
