A 4.7 mile loop trail alongside Long Pond and the perimeter of Mansell Mountain with views of the coast, Beech Mountain and Bernard Mountain. Some sections of the trail have plenty of rocks and roots, so wearing proper footwear is encouraged.
Beehive Trail
www.alltrails.com/trail/us/maine/the-beehive-loop-trail
1.6 miles of incredible views and challenging rung and ladder sections, the Beehive Loop trail is one of the most popular hikes in the park and one we highly recommend to any experienced hikers. There is a less strenuous and safer route up to the peak for anyone who still wants the views from the top, but is worried the ladder portions would be too much for them.
Ship Harbor Loop
