The trail is an old road which leads to the ocean. It's very flat with minimal roots and rocks. Upon reaching the water, the trail loops through a stand of spruce and fir, occasionally providing access to the rocky shoreline.
This is a popular birding spot and there is good tidepooling at low tide. When exploring the tidepools keep these safety tips in mind.
Geocaching is prohibited within Acadia National Park; however, the park does sponsor an EarthCache Program for those seeking a virtual treasure hunt!
