Maine is an incredibly beautiful state to drive and explore, but it can also be confusing. Sometimes you're driving south but your vehiciles compass may be pointing east or west or even north. The rugged coastline means roads often go in various directions before they take you where you want to go.
The rugged interior of Maine is best to explore with a guide or at the very least a very good map. Fortunately there are some great Maine maps and Maine Guides available from Maps.com. A favorite Maine map of ours is from the DeLorme Company of Maine. The State of Maine Travel and Tourism Office has provided us with a free road map of Maine which displays only the major Interstate Highways and major state routes, download the map by clicking here or by clicking on the Maine map below.
