Brown Mountain Carriage Road Trailhead

Trailhead Bar Harbor, Maine, United States

What to expect

The Brown Mountain Carriage Road Trailhead is a great place for outdoor activities such as hiking, mountain biking, and horseback riding. The trail is a 11.4-mile loop that takes around 4 hours and 16 minutes to complete, with an elevation gain of 984 feet. The trail offers stunning views, excellent road conditions, and historic stone bridges. It's a popular trail, but it's still possible to find some solitude during quieter times of the day. Dogs are welcome, but must be on a leash. The trail is suitable for families and offers a great way to explore the beautiful scenery of Acadia National Park
