The Rangeley Lakes Scenic Byway is a National Scenic Byway in the US state of Maine. This byway follows State Route 17 (SR 17) and SR 4 in the western part of the state which is home to the many lakes and streams for which the region is known.[citation needed] The Rangeley Lakes Scenic Byway begins on SR 4 outside the town of Rangeley and then continues on SR 17 after wrapping around Rangeley Lake. The route follows the ridgeline of the Appalachian Mountains before dropping into hills and valleys.
