Finding things to do with kids in Maine is fairly easy given that this state is so great for those who love to explore and have adventures. But, once you’ve done the same things over-and-over again it can be hard to keep things feeling fresh and new. That’s why we’re always looking for the spots that are so unique and fun that they can be enjoyed tons of times without getting old. And this one is great for both kids and adults!
This fun day out begins at York Harbor Beach and heads towards one of the most fun bridges in America! So, head out and make your way to York.

The Fisherman’s Walk Trail is an easy 1.7-mile route that includes absolutely incredible views of the water.

While we’re referring to this as a “hike,” it’s really more of a walk which means it’s great for people who want to see some of the state’s beauty, but don’t want to break a sweat.

You’ll find the trail maintained well and since it’s made with a mix of gravel and well-packed dirt you won’t need to navigate over any roots or other obstacles as with some other trails.

We love this trail any time of year, but it’s especially wonderful in the summer when the local flowers are abundant and beautiful!

The time will fly by as you look at the beautiful homes, the water and the natural beauty of the state of Maine. Eventually you’ll make your way to the causeway passing over the York River. This is the last piece of trail before you reach Steedman Woods and the Wiggly Bridge.

A suspension bridge, this wiggler spans just 75-feet. It’s almost as if it was built for kids!

But the best part is that it truly earns its name! It bounces and wiggles as you walk across!

You might be tempted to jump into the water from here, but that’s not allowed so keep yourself dry and plan on hitting the beach later if you need to cool off.

Once you’ve had your fill of the bridge, continue along to see the Steedman Woods.
