    Hiking

    Although this is technically the shortest route up to the summit of Mt. Katahdin at 3.4 miles, it is very steep and involves a fair bit of scrambling. This epic trail that leads up from Abol Campground to the Hunt Trail and Mt. Katahdin is a rewarding endeavor and a great challenge for any experienced hiker.
