Mt Megunticook

Today is a public holiday in Liechtenstein, so we decided to use the good weather for a hike.
First we went to Rockport, a sleepy little harbor town with a playground right at the sea and a beautiful view. From there we took a little walk to the harbour front with some historic buildings and a statue of Andre the seal (a local icon with a movie about him).
We were then dropped off at the trailhead to Mt Battie, a hump on the way up to the highest "peak" in the park. There is a stone tower and it's easily accessible via a road going right next to it so there were a lot of people.
We just spend a bit of time there before continuing further to a spot called Ocean Lookout where we had lunch. While sitting there we heard some people speaking German 😅 They also heard us and we had a little chat. The summit was pretty unimpressive, just a rock pile surrounded by forest. The trails were in perfect condition and it was a fun day hike.
To get home we needed to walk about 10km along roads which was quite exhausting due to no sidewalks.Read more
