Schiff Path

Schiff Path is a 0.4-mile out-and-back foot trail in Acadia National Park, Maine. Difficulty: easy, estimated from distance. That is the full hike: the mapped trail line runs 2.24 mi because it also covers connecting trails, so it is not the length of this hike. The figure is for the Park Service's “Hike Schiff Path” hike, which uses this trail.
