North Bubble Details

The North Bubble, at 872 feet tall, is a large, pink granite slope and has probably become Maine's most famous rock. If you'd rather look at the Bubbles than hike them, there's a great view of both from the north side of Jordan Pond, where you can see their reflection in the clear water. You can reach both the Bubbles and Jordan Pond via the Park Loop Road.
