EXCELLENT a hiking
EXCELLENT hiking spot. We did all three trails - all beautiful! Started with the blue, then red, and yellow. Great views and loved the Devils Pulpit especially, Some places it wasn’t clear where the trail was, but we never got lost. The parking is $5 with a credit card. There are maps there to take. I might not want to go when it’s muddy, especially now with all the leaves down, as I could see it might be slippery in some places. We spent a lot of time taking photos and spent 2 and 1/2 hours. totally recommend. Plus it’s close enough to Great Barrington to eat afterwards.

Beautiful Views
This was on our favorites list for activities at Acadia National Park. Plan to purchase a park pass as well as a Cadillac Mountain Pass. You will need to select a time to arrive. In my opinion, it is best to choose a time in the morning with the most open passes, so it will be less crowded. We loved the drive and the views. The summit was incredible with views from 3 different directions. We highly recommend this drive and planning in advance to get the time you prefer to visit.
