Acadia National Park

All visitors to the park should purchase a park pass (available at the entrance station on the Park Loop Road or at the Park Office in downtown Bar Harbor).
The best place to go after renting a bike. The loop around Eagle Lake is almost 6 miles.

A great starting spot to take a walk on the boardwalk (scenic in all seasons) or hike up Dorr Mountain.

The most popular place to watch the sunrise. You can drive to the top (there is a LOT of traffic at dawn) or get adventurous and hike up in the dark! FYI, the sunset is also nice from on top of Cadillac. Grab an ice cream from the little store while you are up there. The Island Explorer bus does NOT go to the top of Cadillac (the propane engines can't handle the steep grade).

A great hike with nice views. Go explore the Valley Cove beach and then head back on the fire road to make the trip back quick and easy (and flat).

Consejos sobre la ciudad

Qué meter en la valija

Hiking in Acadia is often on wet rock- bring appropriate footwear.

Every year someone has to be rescued in the park because they weren't prepared for a hike- don't be that person.
