The management of Acadia National Park today is driven by the mission of the park, which was spelled out in the 1992 General Management Plan:
The National Park Service at Acadia National Park protects and preserves outstanding scenic, natural, scientific, and cultural values for present and future generations through programs, facilities, and services. It also provides programs and opportunities for non-consumptive, resource-based recreation and education for an increasingly urban population.
What does this mean? It means that we are here to protect park resources so that your children and your children's children can experience, enjoy, and appreciate the Acadia National Park you know and love today.
Explore this section of the website to find out how we're working to accomplish this mission.
The Acadia National Park Advisory Commission consults with the park superintendent regarding management and development of the park. Learn more about the commission and its purpose and membership on the Advisory Commission page.

Did You Know?
Acadia National Park contains more than 120 miles of historic hiking trails. Many of these trails were established by local village improvement societies in the late 1800s and early 1900s. Today many of the historic features, such as stonework, are still visible.
