How we would fit it into your day
Distances are approximate from downtown Augusta. Hallowell and Gardiner are separate towns. Choose a local section of the rail trail rather than assuming a 6.5-mile through walk. Fort Western is seasonal; regular 2026 tours ended October 12. Shows and special events require their own dates and tickets. Confirm the exact visit date and current conditions; no booking is made by this guide.
