The shore road leads from the pier out to Hull’s Cove before turning up the slopes of the highest peak on the Atlantic Coast of the Americas. From the top you have sweeping views of the forested mountainside, numerous coves and beaches and some of the smaller islands surrounding Mount Desert Island. If the weather is fair, you can even view your ship.
After descending the mountain, follow the one way road in a circular route along the Mount Desert island cost. Other places to view in the park are Thunder Hole, Otter’s Point, Bubble Pond, Jordon’s Pond and Seal Harbor. The landscape was glacier-carved eons ago.(We visited these places a few years ago and recommend that everyone see them.)
(Added note -- we have also walked the entire town which is really great -- we didn’t do the trails.)
