Peregrine falcon chick
From the brook trout breaking the surface of Bubble Pond to the peregrine falcon soaring high over Jordan Cliffs, the land, water, and sky at Acadia are filled with a wide variety of animal life. Some call the park their home, others are simply passing through en route to a far-off destination, but all are closely tied to this unique and fragile environment.

Did You Know?
Acadia National Park contains more than 120 miles of historic hiking trails. Many of these trails were established by local village improvement societies in the late 1800s and early 1900s. Today many of the historic features, such as stonework, are still visible.
