Maine Fall Color

Use the Maine fall foliage map to follow color from the North Woods and western mountains to Acadia, Portland, and the coast. Maine is a long state with strong north-to-south timing differences, so the best fall color can shift substantially between Aroostook County, Rangeley, Baxter State Park, and coastal towns.

Maine foliage often features bright red maples, golden birches and aspens, and warm oak color in southern and coastal areas. Higher inland terrain near Rangeley, Moosehead Lake, and the western mountains usually changes before lower coastal locations such as Bar Harbor, Camden, and Portland.

Finding Peak Color in Maine

Maine foliage often features bright red maples, golden birches and aspens, and warm oak color in southern and coastal areas. Higher inland terrain near Rangeley, Moosehead Lake, and the western mountains usually changes before lower coastal locations such as Bar Harbor, Camden, and Portland.

Use the map to scout broad color timing, then check the fall foliage forecast for a specific town, park, or trailhead. Coastal moderation, elevation, and local forest type can all affect whether a given Maine destination is still building color, near peak, or already past peak.
