1414. The Beehive Trail, Acadia National Park
This strenuous, 1.4-mile hike is one of the most exciting hikes in this park in Maine. It could take you up to three hours to finish it despite its short distance. It is a thrilling, exhilarating climb complete with metal rungs, cliff walks, and an incredible, panoramic view of Mt. Desert Island.
You should note, however, that this short hike also is not for anyone afraid of heights. This hike includes a significant amount of exposure with ladder climbs and notably narrow cliff trails too. This is also not a child-friendly hike either.
