Borestone Mountain
Map

Borestone Mountain is a mountain in Piscataquis County, Maine. It is a popular hiking spot in Western Maine, with trailheads located on Mountain Road near Willimantic, Maine. [1].

Hiker's route to summit

The trail is open to hikers 365 days a year. The well marked, well maintained trail passes to the south and east of Midday Pond ascending the west side of the mountain. Directly to the south of Midday pond on the trail is a small one room cabin with a museum open from Memorial Day to Columbus Day. The distance from parking to the summit is about 3 miles. The last part of the trail is very steep with sharp rocks with iron rungs to assist hikers. The East Peak offers a spectacular 360 degree view extending from the Penobscot River to the east, to the western Maine Mountains and the Quebec border to the west.
