Camden Hills State Park campgrounds is nestled at the foot of Mt Battie and is at the shores of Penabscot Bay. This is a great place for hiking, biking, climbing, (on and off the road), fishing, and kayaking.
This park is also known for its own merits. Camden Hills State Park is deceptively large. US 1 brings you into the park and all you can see is the ranger station and Mt Battie Auto Road with a large open field to the right. If you see an RV dont backup just go on forward, this place definitely deserves a closer look. Venture on into the park farther and you will see the wilderness atmosphere you seek.
Camden Hills State Park has two loops within the campground. Camping sites 1 throw 63 are in the first loop just off to the right as you come into the park. The camp sites here are closer together, there are still camp sites that provide a sense of solitude. In this first loop there are 8 to 10 camp sites that are favorites. These sites are best suited to pitching tents and they are a little smaller and make nice, cozy spots to camp.
The inner loop contains sites 103 throw 105 also has good camping sites for tents. Just past the inner loop, has fewer sites...
