For an exhilarating experience in Acadia National Park, I highly recommend tackling the scenic trail offering breathtaking views of Jordan Pond from the summit. This trail presents a moderate challenge and can be completed comfortably in 1.5 to 2 hours, making it accessible for most hikers. Once you ascend to a certain point, a choice between three destinations—North Bubble, South Bubble, or Bubble Divide—awaits. Although each spot is just 0.2 to 0.3 miles away, the North Bubble rewards you with remarkable vistas. While the South Bubble may lack extensive views, witnessing the iconic Bubble Rock makes the hike worthwhile. Keep in mind that parking can be a challenge, so an early arrival is advisable. During our visit, it took around 30 minutes of waiting to secure a parking spot. If you're planning a trip to Acadia, ensure this trail is on your itinerary for an unforgettable adventure.

Great way to access both Bubbles. North Bubble was less crowded and had arguably better views (first picture). That one is an out and back up to the summit. South Bubble was also excellent and can be done as a loop. It's nice to descend all the way and add a lap around Jordan Pond which is flat, easy, pretty, about 3 miles, and takes about 1 extra hour.

We couldn’t start here because of limited parking spots. Be there early. Otherwise, you have to park at the Jordan Pond and go through very steep side of a trail including rock climbing that are not recommended for young kids (<13 years) or elders.

Due to a lack of time, we could only complete the South Bubble Trail (along with Bubble Rock). It is a short, easy hike with a roundtrip duration of about 1 hour. The woods are calm and quiet, and the views over Jordan Pond are highly rewarding!

Beautiful trail!! The rock isn't that impressive but the hike is really nice, and the Jordan lake is gorgeous..I also got to see a friendly deer on the way. Definitely recommend. It's maybe a ~2h hike and not too strenuous.

Went on a rainy day and it turned out to be a super magical experience. It was like walking in a fairytale. Not the easiest hike but definitely a rewarding one. Also there are plenty of wild blueberries along the trail!
