The first trail is rather steep in places, but short, and suitable for children age 4 and above. Most reasonably fit hikers will make it to the summit (780’) in about an hour.
The second trail is less steep, and was easily tackled by my 3-year-old daughter last summer. Again, it takes about an hour to reach the summit.
At the top you’ll find an exposed granite ledge that offers unobstructed views of Penobscot Bay (barring any fog, of course). On a clear day, you can see Cadillac Mountain in Acadia National Park.
Restrooms and an observation tower are also located at the summit.
