| The Tarn, a small pond ("Tarn" means "mountain pond"), empties into a small stream that goes through the Wild Gardens of Acadia. To the right is Dorr Mountain, 1270 feet above sea level and named for a pioneer trail builder before the area became Acadia National Park. Milt Gross Photo |
The Tarn, a small pond ("Tarn" means "mountain pond"), empties into a small stream that goes through the Wild Gardens of Acadia. To the right is Dorr Mountain, 1270 feet above sea level and named for a pioneer trail builder before the area became Acadia National Park. To the left is Huguenot Head up which an easy half-mile trail winds, providing one of the most scenic and most accessible views in the park. The Tarn is easily reached from Route 3 or the Island Explorer propane-powered buses, which offer free transportation throughout Acadia National Park and Mount Desert Island from June through early October.
