Hike Precipice Trail, Acadia National Park, Maine
Rising over 1,000 feet in 0.9 miles, the Precipice Trail requires physical and mental strength. It is a rugged, non-technical climb with open cliff faces and iron rungs. Upon reaching the summit of Champlain Mountain, climbers are rewarded with impressive views.
A ledge walk along the exhilarating Precipice Trail in Acadia National Park! The trail closes spring to mid-summer every year for peregrine falcon nesting. One of the most thrilling hikes in the park for those who don't mind the vertical exposure. It is designated as “strenuous” and is only recommended for physically fit and experienced hikers who have no fear of heights.
It is not recommended for small children, for people with a fear of heights, or for anyone in wet weather. Descending the Precipice is dangerous and not advised.
Elevation: 1,058 feet
