The Beehive Trail

Good forOutdoor lovers

Halfway up, you stop trusting your hands and start trusting the iron rungs bolted into the granite — because that's what's there. The Beehive Loop is 1.4 miles round trip with 450 feet of elevation gain up a cliff face above Sand Beach, part of Acadia's historic rung and ladder trail system. The summit delivers views over Sand Beach, Great Head, and Frenchman Bay. Don't hike it in the rain. The granite gets slippery, and there are no railings.
