Traveler Notes

This is the top of Acadia National Park. It has one of the best views and the trail itself is short (0.3 miles) and easy (all paved paths). This is really the perfect trail to take the whole family on. Everyone enjoyed the hike despite it being very windy on top.

During the 30 minutes we spent there, we only saw 3-4 other groups. Acadia would have been crowded this time of the year if not for coronavirus. We felt spoiled that we had the gorgeous view all to ourselves for most of the trail.

Cadillac Summit in Acadia National Park is the highest point of the Northeast Area of the United States. So it’s supposed to be the place to see sunrise first in the US. We took the easy way - drove up to the summit instead of hiking all the way. We still had to get up at 4am and made it to the peak by 430am. The sun rose at ~4:45am and it was one of the most beautiful sights!
