The rocky coast and barren mountaintops of Mount Desert Island provide vantage points for some amazing views. Though no picture can compare to seeing this scenery in person, these panoramic images try to capture a few of the striking vistas of Acadia National Park.

Once the image opens, navigate about the image by clicking in the image window and dragging to the left or right. You can also zoom into or out of the image by using the + and - keys.
