Exploration
of Acadia National Park: Virtual Tour
Guide and Information "ACADIA
TRAILS and Mountains".
Throughout the Mountains of Acadia and
Mount Desert Island you'll find a lot of trails that take
you on scenic walks and hikes.
The easiest trail, offering instant
gratification is the Shore Path in Bar Harbor which takes
you on a stroll along the bay's edge where you'll have a
nice breeze and enjoy watching lobster boats, sail boats,
schooners and cruise ships while passion the mansions that
line the shorepath and gave public permission to allow
passage by.
Jordan Pond offers a trail which takes you
on a 1/2 mile scenic walk around the pond. This is a
very easy trail to walk. You will be walking along
glacier formations and seeing the beautiful views around the
pond along with watching folks canoe and kayak this area.
Sieur De Monts Spring - The Hemlock Road
takes you on a 1.5 mile hike through the base of Dorr
Mountain. This is a woodlands trail.
Ship Harbor, over on the Southwest Side of
Mount Desert at Seawall is a 1.3 mile hike that we really
enjoyed. Rewards of gorgeous views come quickly here.
Plus, you can enjoy the rocky beach and picnic area nearby.
Bar Island in Bar Harbor. This is a
sandbar at low tide that provides access to the forested
island. It's off of West Street on Bridge Street.
It's any easy walk once you get on the gravel bar
