316 Compass Harbor Trail

Title: Compass Harbor Trail in bold; background historic photo of man looking out from atop a granite outcropping and an inset image of a historic mansion.

The 0.4-miles (0.6-km) Compass Harbor Trail runs adjacent to the foundations of Old Farm, the family residence of George B. Dorr, known as the father of Acadia National Park. A gentleman scholar and lover of nature, Dorr lived here at Compass Harbor most of his adult life and devoted his endeavors and inheritance to the establishment, maintenance, and expansion of Acadia. Besides donating his Sieur de Mons and Old Farm properties to the park, he worked closely with summer and year-round residents to bestow tracts, purchase lands, and seek federal protection to create the Acadia you enjoy today.
