This was a fun (but heavily trafficked) trail. Not too difficult, with minor scrambling and overall great views the while way up. We brought our mini dachshund with us and needed limited assistance climbing. Id suggest taking the Cadillac Cliffs trail on the way back if youre feeling saucy. It spiced up the overall trail hike and offered a more diverse climbing experience.

What a grand adventure! This is a very easy hike in most seasons. If you plan on winter hiking, check with the ranger station in Bar Harbor for trail conditions. There was a thick layer of ice under the 3-4 inches of snow which made a few spots treacherous if you dont have and ice gear. Basic crampons, Yaktrax or MICROspikes will do the trick.The views are pretty spectacular in the winter and on a sunny day the 30 degree temperature is actually perfect. Just be aware of what time sunset will hit.The Gorham mountain trail leads to a couple other equally fantastic hikes.

Great hike in Acadia. Including some rest time at the top, I would recommend 90ish minutes round trip time.

Oh, you must see yourself!

Parallels the Beach Path, but several hundred feet higher up, so you get a higher-level view. Nice mix of wooded/rocky trail and nothing too technical. Park at the southern end of the trailhead, near Boulder Beach. Then you can take the 3 or 5 shuttles back to your car from Sand Beach after the hike.

Easy hike with some scrambles and a great view

A nice mid length hike with many connecting trails. Great view at the summit when fog has burned off.

Really nice views and a good trail leading to the top

Nice hike, not an impressive peak. Still worth it....

Amazing views

Gorgeous views overlooking the surrounding park area.

Easy walk, spectacular views
