The Kennebec-Chaudiere Section of Route 201 is designated an International Scenic Byway Tour and rightfully so. It is one of the most spectacular drives in all of New England following the route generations of travelers have taken between Maine and Quebec. Enjoy fall foliage touring, winding river drives, rest areas for picnicking and moose safari drives.
