Social media has driven Acadia tourists to a quiet spot on the Schoodic Peninsula

BANGOR DAILY NEWS • June 20, 2026

Social media is attracting tourists to an unmarked trail on the Schoodic Peninsula, where dramatic jagged cliffs drop into Frenchman Bay in Acadia’s quieter region. As more and more tourists vacation in Acadia National Park each year, the park recorded more than 4 million visits last year, many of the park’s most iconic attractions are often congested with people. Some tourists are looking for places to enjoy the park without the mayhem and are turning to social media for suggestions. One TikTok trend has centered around Ravens Nest, a cluster of cliffs off Schoodic Loop Road in the park’s only mainland section.
