    If you are walking to Bass Harbor Lighthouse this is the view you see from the trail.

    Absolutely stunning... An absolute must visit location and one which I'm so glad I didn't miss! For the best view, take the path through the trees past the toilets in the car park and go down the wooden steps to the rocky shore... The views are incredible and the water is crystal clear ❤️
