Pismire Mountain

Pismire Mountain is a summit in southern Maine, about 4.4 miles from the town of Casco. It sits within a cluster of short hiking routes, so a visit can be built around one of several nearby trails rather than a single approach. Late summer into early fall offers the mildest conditions. Typical averages from a nearby weather station in Poland, Maine, run to highs around 78°F in July and about 69°F in September, with lows near 48°F by September. Winter brings regular snow, with highs below freezing from December through February. Several trails start within a short distance. Highlands Loop is just 0.2 miles away and Pismire Bluff Trail about 0.3 miles off. Spiller Homestead Loop and Grape Expectations Trail both lie within roughly half a mile, making it easy to link more than one route in a single outing.
