The carriage trails around Eagle Lake have accessible lakeside walking and biking for all ages and ability levels. Sections of the carriage roads at the south end of the lake are steeper and more difficult. Eagle lake is an ancient glacial lake formed by the last ice age and the second largest body of fresh water in the park.

Duck Brook Falls

Highlight • Waterfall

Duck Brook Fall is located near the Duck Brooke Bridge and thus easily accessible. However, the way down from the carriage road can be slippery so take care on wet rocks.

Witch Hole Pond Carriage Road

Highlight (Segment) • Cycleway

Acadia is possibly the best National Park to explore on a bike. Witch Hole Pond Carriage Road is one of many throughout the park with excellent surfacing, making it accessible to the whole family. Of course the autumn leaves are stunning, but don't feel like it's not worth visiting the rest of the year. Each season has it's own unique charms and attractions.
