Attraction

Shore Path

begins at Town Pier, Bar Harbor, ME

When the mountainous terrain of Acadia seems too intimidating, head to this gentle paved path along the shoreline of Bar Harbor. The path wends its way for about three-quarter of a mile, passing by gorgeous scenery that is both natural (pine-studded islands in the bay) and man-made (majestic mansions on the shore). It’s a great path for an early-morning run or a leisurely evening stroll, and is especially handy for younger kids who are not yet ready to test their mettle on the mountains.
