Fodor's Expert Review St. Sauveur and Acadia Mountain Loop
Acadia National Park and Mount Desert Island
Fodor's Choice
If you're up for a challenge, this is one of the area's best hikes. The 3.9-mile round-trip loop summits both St. Sauveur and Acadia mountains. Ascents and descents are steep and strenuous, but the views of Somes Sound and beyond are grand. The hike begins at the Acadia Mountain trailhead. For a shorter excursion, follow the fire road that connects with the Acadia Mountain Trail section of the loop. Difficult.
