Popular, easy and beautiful hiking trail in Maine🦞

Great Head trail is one of my favorite trails in the world famous Acadia National Park! I was blown away by the gorgeous views of the ocean and how bright + blue the ocean water at Sand Beach looked from up on the trail!

I would label this trail as easy. It’s more of a walking loop and is not very steep! The full loop is 1.6 miles and has plenty of spots to stop and enjoy the beautiful ocean views!
