Enjoy what it is like to cycle Acadia in all four Seasons! "Cycling Acadia" is an hour long documentary that explores various popular cycling loops on the carriage roads of Acadia National Park. It also delves into the history of the carriage roads to discover how they evolved from equestrian use to be shared with cyclists from all over the world today. In addition to unearthing history, this film reveals the nooks, crannies and gorgeous vistas not normally seen by visitors to Acadia unless they are avid cyclists willing, in some cases, to ascend mountains to gain rare views. The film also provides the opportunity to interview cyclists on the trails to discover their impressions of the park. And the show examines the future of carriage road cycling with so many more visitors eager to try it and with the advent of electric bikes. The film begins in early spring and ends as snowflakes descend and Acadia transforms herself into a winter wonderland for cross-country skiers, ice fishermen, and yes, cyclists riding fat bikes. Acadia has become a year round destination for cyclists.
