Description

Sea side bouldering in a spectacular setting. This area doesn't hold the best bouldering in the park, but a good quick hit if your in the park and climbing isn't your main agenda. The rock is a coarse granite and the problems range from V0-V5. This area is basically a long vertical wall with many good easy problems, and a small roof at the right end.

Getting There

From the center of Bar Harbor take rt 3. Take a left onto Otter Cliff road, the parking lot is on the right at the end of the road.

From the lot: walk the road and take a left onto Park Loop road, the trail down into the cove is on the right.

MtnProjct user Aaron Rudnick suggests that "The area is easily accessed by parking in the Gorham Trail lot off of Park Loop. Travel north along the Ocean Path and you should be able to see the rock outcrop from the trail. "

I am not sure if this is an update, (i.e is the Gorham Trail new?) but thought I'd add it in. R Hall, Admin 10/10/21
