Jordan Pond is a 187-acre glacial lake nestled between the Bubbles, two rounded mountains. Its exceptionally clear water offers stunning reflections of the surrounding peaks, making it a favorite spot for photographers. A 3.3-mile loop trail circles the pond, providing easy hiking with boardwalk sections over wetlands. Visitors can also enjoy popovers and tea at the historic Jordan Pond House, which has been serving refreshments since the 1870s.
