Located off Mountain Avenue, Mount David is a tall rock outcropping on the edge of the Bates College campus. This private property is a popular destination with Bates’ nature lovers. Just a five-minute hike from the center of campus, the wooded hill offers beautiful views of Lewiston and the surrounding countryside.

Recognize Working Forests and Waters: Maine’s landscapes are not just for recreation—they’re also active, productive environments that support local livelihoods and communities. Forests may be actively logged; waterways are used for lobstering, clamming, aquaculture, and transport. For everyone’s safety, maintain a safe distance from active logging operations, and do not disturb working docks, fishing equipment, traps or buoys.
The trail leaves from the edge of the field behind the Bates College student housing on the corner of College Street and Mountain Avenue in Lewiston. Turn onto Mountain Avenue and park on the side of the street.
