| If you are thru-hiking the A.T. northbound, you have hiked over 2000 miles when you reach Andover ME. Southbounders, this is your last place to enjoy Maine hospitality. Pine Ellis is a great spot for you the take a day off the trail, kick those boots off and give yourself a rest before you continue your hike.

We regularly pick up and drop off at the two closest trail heads of the A.T. (East B Hill and South Arm Rd) which are a mere 10 minutes away from our B&B, and we offer shuttle services to and from these other trail heads : Gorham (Rte #2), Grafton Notch (Rte #26), Rte #17, Rangeley (Rte #4). We shuttle from Gorham to Stratton, and bus stations and airports. Fees apply. | ||
