How much do you know about Acadia National Park? Take our quiz.

The Portland Press Herald’s website has added a new interactive feature for summer readers: a quiz designed to test how well people know Acadia National Park. The activity went live on the outlet’s platform yesterday at 4 a.m., positioned within a broader travel guide that encourages residents and visitors to make the most of Maine’s outdoor attractions.
The purpose of the quiz is to give participants a quick way to gauge their familiarity with the park’s landmarks, trails and natural history while promoting tourism during the peak travel season. By framing the experience as a light‑hearted challenge, the piece aims to spark interest in exploring the park’s carriage roads, coastal vistas and forested ridges, all of which are highlighted elsewhere in the state’s summer itinerary.
The content of the quiz was generated with assistance from artificial intelligence, a fact noted in the article’s byline. No individual journalist is credited as the author, and the piece does not include commentary from park officials or local residents.
Readers can interact with the quiz in several ways. Options to share the link appear alongside buttons for printing, posting on social networks such as Facebook, X and LinkedIn, or emailing the article to a friend. The site also offers a subscription service that permits users to gift a limited number of articles each month, though no active subscription is currently attached to the account shown.
The article is part of a larger series that includes a crossword about Baxter State Park and a prompt to identify the names of 25 state parks in Maine, underscoring the newspaper’s focus on regional recreation. While the story provides a fun, educational tool, comments are not permitted, reflecting the outlet’s policy on discussion for this type of feature.
