Like most of the Isle au Haut hiking trails, the Duck Harbor Mountain Trail is rugged and challenging. There are a number of excellent viewpoints, and this trail is an exception from the primarily coastal hikes on Isle au Haut. If you have time, continuing south along the Cliff Trail and Western Head Trail makes for a great loop! If you are pressed for time to catch the ferry the Western Head Road makes for a much faster run back to Duck Harbor.
