When ascending Beehive Peak, be sure to go counter-clockwise. There's a sign to that effect on the trail leading to the start. The reason will become clear once you reach the climbing sections and via ferratas. Firstly, the trail is so narrow and winding in places that passing is impossible (even for overtaking). Secondly, there are some climbing sections that are significantly easier to ascend the slope than they would be in the opposite direction.

The Tarn is a glacial meltwater lake. It is in a valley between two peaks, Mt. Dorr and Huguenot Head. The lake was primarily used as a trout fishing site, but as the water level has been steadily declining, it is now primarily used as a source of live bait.

The Tarn pond to the east of Dorr Mountain was formed from a glacial meltwater lake. For many years the pond was used to farm trout. The dry summers in the 1990s reduced the water volume and led to an increase in aquatic plants. The pond is now increasingly swampy and is no longer used for fishing. https://www11.maine.gov/ifw/docs/lake-survey-maps/hancock/the_tarn.pdf

The route from Dorr Mountain to Cadillac Mountain leads steeply down into the wooded valley of Kebo Brook. The Dorr West Face Trail, also known as the Cadillac-Dorr Connector, is marked with blue paint but is not always clearly visible.

At the end of the 19th century, Desert Island became a tourist attraction. The Green Mountain Cog Railway, a cog railway, was in operation from 1883 and took tourists to the summit of Green Mountain, today's Cadillac Mountain (from 1918), where they could enjoy the breathtaking view. The railway ran from Eagle Lake to the summit over a distance of around 1.8 km. When passenger numbers declined, the railway service was discontinued in 1891. In the following years, the railway line was completely dismantled. Today, only remnants of the route remain. The Buckboard Road was built in the late 19th century, leading up to the summit along the north ridge. However, the journey was only possible by horse-drawn carriage and tourists preferred to walk up the mountain. https://www.nps.gov/articles/000/secrets-of-the-summit.htm The paved ‘Cadillac Mountain Road’ was completed between 1929 and 1932. The more than six kilometer long route is considered an exceptional example of construction work in mountainous terrain. https://www.nps.gov/articles/000/motor-road-history.htm

This is one of the easiest summits on Mount Desert Island, but the views do not disappoint. From the very top you can see north to Champlain, Dorr, and Cadillac mountains (from east to west), and you get views of Sand Beach from an overlook not far down. There are often lots of families with children on the trail in the summer. Those looking for more of a challenge should be sure to check out the Cadillac Cliffs Trail.

The Jordan Pond Path is a year-round hiking trail along the shoreline of Jordan Pond. Hiking trails to the Penobscot, Sargent, Pemetic Mountains, and the Bubbles begin at this trailhead. Parking is available at the Jordan Pond House and along Park Loop Road at the Bubbles-Pemetic Trailhead. We hiked the trail along the east shore in May 2024 as we descended from Sargent Mountain and returned to the parking lot at the Jordan Pond House. We had to skip the hike over the Bubbles Divide because there is construction going on on this trail. https://www.nps.gov/thingstodo/hike-jordan-pond-path.htm
