Tumbledown Mountain

Alpine Pond in the Clouds

Tumbledown offers one of Maine’s most iconic hikes. Choose from three trails (Loop Trail, Brook Trail, or Parker Ridge) depending on your energy and experience. All lead to the stunning Tumbledown Pond, a high-altitude lake surrounded by cliffs.

Swim in the cold, clear water. Lie back on a warm boulder. Let the views wash over you. It’s nature’s spa, Maine-style.

Camp at Mount Blue State Park or rent a rustic cabin in Weld. Afterward, head to Rolling Fatties in Farmington for fresh, funky burritos.

Local Tip: Hike in early June to catch wildflowers in bloom around the pond.
