In the 1800s, cattle once roamed the grassy slopes of Portland’s Eastern Promenade. But as the city grew, so did interest in preserving this scenic area. Historian William Goold and Mayor James P. Baxter played key roles in securing land with views over Casco Bay. By 1905, the Olmsted Brothers were asked to shape the park’s design. Today, the Eastern Prom remains a vital green space.

Vandring

The Eastern Promenade was designed in 1905 by the Olmsted Brothers. The firm is known for designing New York's Central Park and Boston Common. The three-kilometer-long Eastern Promenade Trail runs along the shore of Casco Bay from the northeast of the Portland Peninsula below Munjoy Hill to Portland Harbor. At Tukey's Bridge on Highway 295, there are connections to the Back Cove Trail and the Bayside Trail.

The Maine Narrow Gauge Railroad runs special trains along the promenade year-round.
