Short, easy hike in forest area and down to a rock and pebble beach. During high tide theres a thin strip on beach but during low tide there are more rocks to climb on. The water is very clear and you can see a lot in the rock pools. A great first hike for young kids or with dogs.

A sweet place to tuck in and paint. It can be busy at times.

Relaxing. The trail is hard to follow as it splits off into many directions.

Super nice, easy and quiet hike just outside town. A very pleasant hike with a super view of the cove.

Short walk to a secluded bit of beach and the remains of the foundation of Old Farm - the home of the man who worked tirelessly to realize the dream that became Acadia National Park.

For a short walk/hike, this is a place to go. It also connects to other trails, in case you want to go further and have the time to so do.

A ruin of a historical farm at Compass Harbor. Housed the founder of Acadia National Park, George B. Dorr. Ties wonderfully into nearby trail loop.

I have just returned from my first trip to Bar Harbor off a cruise ship and hiked with local Mary O through the woods to the Old Farm home place ruins of my distant cousin, George Dorr. He and my great great grandfather were 4th cousins. It was a moving experience to observe the beauty of this area and to read about Georges unrelenting efforts to get Acadia established. I will return again in the months ahead having read by then both his memoir and the new biography by Ron Epp both available at the book store in Bar Harbor. My next visit will be much longer not a day excursion for sure. Jean Dorr Lusted
