Hiking in Maine During Hunting Season

This is a great time of the year to hike in Maine. However, one must be careful during November as that is the deer rifle deer hunting season and the woods are full of eager hunters. Be very visible - wear an orange hat and vest. Try to hike on trails in areas that exclude hunting. There is no hunting on Sundays so that is the best day to hike.
