Tour Description

Let a MCHT steward/naturalist show you the tidal pools, sand beaches, and nearly 11 miles of trails on this stellar island, Maine's largest undeveloped island. With its rocky shores and continual swell, Marshall has a rugged feeling that gives you a different sense of the coast. Plenty of mushroom potential! A hike of 6-8 miles included!
