The Meat Cove Mountain Trail is a steep, rugged route that climbs quickly from the area near Meat Cove Campground into the surrounding highlands. The path is narrow and rooty with loose rock in places, making trekking poles and proper footwear useful on both the ascent and descent. Once you break out of the forest, the views open immediately toward the ocean and cliffs below. Because the upper section is exposed, it’s important to attempt the trail only in suitable weather, as wind and fog can roll in fast along the coast.
