Beautiful walk after the snow! love how its very open to the ocean. def easy, fun and beautiful hike
Beautiful views along the rocky shoreline. Easy walk for the whole family. Pet friendly trail. Wasnt too crowded on a Sunday afternoon. Definitely a must!
The shore path provides breathtaking views of what I believe was the Frenchmans Bay. Please visit if you travel to Maine.
I will never get tired of this place absolutely love it
A beautiful stroll with spectacular views. A bit of local history on the way.
What a beautiful walk along The Shore Path at sunset, at the end of a picture perfect day. Incredible colors, relaxing atmosphere, calm water, boats silhouetted against the water and sky, the well landscape properties along the path. This was such an enjoyable walk, that it was hard to leave it. If you get the chance be sure to walk it and enjoy the leaving your stress behind.
Shore path is an easy walk that has a nice view right on the ocean. It usually isnt as busy but it can still attract lots of people. The shore path is smooth and not hilly. You have access to the water as well as some of the hotels too. It kind of loops into town, you will want to go up a path that has fences on each side as well as trees covering it. The path is super cool and worth checking out. Maybe grab an ice cream and walk up and down the path.
Most beautiful place in my world. Just steps from my hotel.
One is the best spots downtown to see the water
This is a great place to get in your daily steps and take in some beautiful views.
Lovely walking path that I highly recommend. I only gave 4 stars because the path is not well kept up and people who have a little trouble with balance or with any ailment that affects walking will find it a bit tiring in a couple spots. The majority is fine for anyone. Have to dodge the bushes in a few spots, but the path is good. This is not suitable in spots for a wheelchair or scooter due to a small washout making the path very narrow. The walk is refreshing right along and slightly above the rocky beach and lets you see a couple of nice homes from the back. Its not a long walk, but wear comfy shoes. Its not suitable for heels or idiot shoes. The surface is not entirely even. If you start at the wharf and roll around in the northward circle, you pop out in the perfect spot to head south on Main and shop or eat. Its a lovely stroll. I recommend.
Words cant desrcibe the coastline
Beautiful public walkway along the coast in Bar Harbor! Very easy half mile walk and well worth the time!
An easy trail in a very high-trafficked, touristy part of the town and right on the harbor. Great pastime!
Easy walk and great view
Beautiful walk along the Rocky shore.
Very nice morning family walk near downtown
This is a nice walk. It would be a nice walk before or after dinner in bar harbour. There are plenty of benches on the way to stop and admire the view.
We had a great walk along the seashore with a lovely view over Frenchaman Bay, thats takes about an hour to do. You can watch the cruise ships come in and some beautiful private homes on the Bay. We really enjoyed the Shore Path. It is really a lovely, memory making experience if you visit Bar Harbor. Probably better during the week and off-season than on a busy summer weekend where there should be less people.
Great place for a walk and to go beach exploring.
A wonderful walk along a beautiful piece of Maine shoreline. The walk is along mostly rocky shore. The granite rocks have their own beauty, adding to the view Frenchmans Bay and the Porcupine Islands one the seaside and many elegant homes landward. Many of those were built when Bar Harbor was the summer playground of the very wealthy. An easy stroll that will bring you back into Main Street. Just be able to do the whole walk as exits are limited. And dont forget your camera!
Very pretty, scenic walk down the coast. You can jump down and get to water anywhere if you chose.A man that was cutting grass asked us not to sit near him but I dont think hes there everyday so you may be able to get away sitting anywhere you please
Easy and enjoyable, perfect for kids.
Its a great, easy walk along the shore. When you get to the end of the path, go back to the roadway and walk through the shops, get ice cream, have a beer, eat dinner, or take a tour.
Great views.
Magnificent Trail...love to go back there again...
This is a great place for a walk. The trail is level and you have nice views of the shoreline.
Beautiful place to watch the sunrise
Scenic walkway.
Beautiful views of the islands and boats coming in and out of the harbor. Stroller accessible and only takes about an hour to walk the whole path. Dont miss this if you are in the Bar Harbor area.
EXCELLENT walk. Love the Museums of Street signs. Good example of city planning that considers both residents and visitors.
Beautiful walk along Frenchman Bay!
Nice views, easy grade, trees, flowers, hedges, rocks... I don’t know how to make this more helpful. It is a path, go on a walk, bring a friend!
A great place to walk. Wild life and rock climbing when the tide is out.
Nice long shore path. Good after-dinner walk in Summer.
A beautiful and picturesque path along the waterfront in Bar Harbor, there are access points at several locations around town, but there is a public lot in the middle of the path in which to park. The path winds along the harbor and was breathtaking both in the cold and misty morning as well as the sun. A must do walk, about a 1/2 mile from start to finish with no uneven or rough terrain.
Lovely walk along water. There are many different sights to take in while enjoying the fresh air.
Awesome view!
Beautiful walk along Bar Harbor shore. The views are breathtaking.Try getting there close to a sunset and start your walk from Town Pier - youll have an opportunity to make it a loop, Shore Path turns back to Main Street in the end. The whole loop is 1.5 miles and takes about an hour to complete.
A nice enough walk in Bar Harbor town, but better walks, such as the Ocean Path, are available. Good for history buffs, or for people off of the cruise ship.
Nice place to walk close to town. Amazing views along the way
I definitely recommend taking a stroll down this path if youre visiting Bar Harbor. Very scenic and a great spot to enjoy the smell of the sea breeze
Take a relaxing stroll along the shore path, with beautiful views of the bay on one side, and lovely historic homes on the other.
Beautiful Path.
Very nice that inns and private homes allow a public shoreline trail. The only things wrong with the trail is that it can get very busy and slow during July-August, and bikes are allowed when the trail is too narrow for them, it just ruins the purpose of the walk.
So beautiful!
A very peaceful, beautiful spot to enjoy morning coffee!
Like its sister version in Newport, very worthwhile checking out.
Even in a light rain on a blustery day the views from the Shore Path are well worth the effort.
Very scenic route. Easy walking.
Good easy walk. Mostly flat, accessible and pretty quick. Would be good for jogging. The path is narrow however so be mindful of other walkers. Very popular you will most likely see other people. Great views from the path. And historic landmarks are marked with a brief description in English and French.
Nice place to be outside and walk along the shore.
Lovely coastal walk after dinner following the history
Breathtakingly beautiful!
Nice walk
Beautiful evening walk along the coast
Cute walk. Could be a larger loop
Beautiful walk around the harbor. Highly recommend.
Nice relatively easy walk for visitors to see scenery and meet friendly locals.
A pure delight circling the east side of Bar Harbor. One must try it both at low and high tide.
Great. Came in 2016 and worth a second trip.
Beautiful day and a great path to hike. Many accesses located around the heart of Bar Harbor.
Beautiful walk as the sky goes through its evening costume change
Beautiful view, peaceful walk especially early in the morning!
Its a to do when visiting Bar Harbor. Peaceful stroll across the bar and to the peak of the island.
Quick walk with gorgeous views.

Well kept path, but not a whole lot to see. Good for an after lunch leisurely walk.
Such a great walking path. Scenery is absolutely beautiful

Really beautiful walk along the Harbor but very heavily trafficked at pretty much all times
Always walk and enjoy the view when I am in Bar Harbor
