The Porcupine Islands, a chain of five islands, lie east of Bar Harbor in French Bay. With their rounded mountain peaks and dense forests, the archipelago resembles a huddled family of porcupines. Except for Burnt Porcupine Island, the islands are part of Acadia National Park.
The islands were formed during the Ice Age when retreating glaciers moved from north to south, creating their characteristic flat slope on the north side and a steep slope at the southern end.

Yürüyüş

Facing Eastward along the Schiff Path, the open bedrock of Dorr is the perfect amphitheater for viewing Champlain mountain and the Porcupine Islands (Bald, Burnt, Long, and Sheep Porcupine) and Bar Island near Bar Harbor. At low tide, hikers can see the walkable sandbar strip which offers part time access to the eponymous Bar Island.

Facing Westward, hikers look upwards toward Cadillac Mountain, the tallest summit in the park.
