The Bar Harbor Hostel is located on Mount Desert Island, 1-mile from Acadia National Park. We are in down town Bar Harbor, a 10 minute walk to the ocean, a quick taxi ride from the CAT ferry and a few blocks from the Greyhound/Vermont and Bar Harbor Shuttle drop off. (Please note: Greyhound only goes to Bangor until mid June. There is only one bus (the Down East) from Bangor to Bar Harbor, it runs on Mondays and Fridays. There is also the Bar Harbor Shuttle.

We are fortunate to be located in an area where opportunities abound for hiking, biking, canoeing, ocean kayaking, sailing, and whale-watching, among other outdoor pursuits. We enjoy being near the forest, mountains, lakes and the ocean.

Acadia National Park is easily accessed on the free Island Explorer shuttles which run from June 23rd to October 8th (2007 schedule) and bike rentals are available in town.

The Bar Harbor Youth Hostel has 28 beds including a private room for four. We also have 3 8x8 wooden tent platforms.
