Ogunquit's Marginal Way with a Wheelchair or Mobility Scooter

The Marginal Way is a paved footpath along the rocky shore between Ogunquit village and Perkins Cove, a bit over a mile long, with ocean views the whole way. It is one of the most loved walks in Maine, and much of it is doable with the right equipment.

What the path is like

The path is paved, but it is narrow in places and has hills and some uneven spots. It gets very busy on summer and fall afternoons. Most visitors with limited mobility enjoy one end, ride or roll to a good viewpoint, and come back, rather than doing the full length.

Which rental works

• transport chair: light and narrow, easy for a companion to push and to pull aside for passing walkers.
• Pride GoGo travel scooter: good for the flatter stretches. Go slowly on the hills.

Tips

• Go early in the morning for fewer people and easier parking.
• Benches along the way are good rest stops.
• Hold on to the ride on the downhill sections.

Finish at Perkins Cove

The south end of the path drops you at Perkins Cove, with restaurants and the footbridge. More in our Ogunquit rental guide.
