Hiking

The Bowl is an ancient glacial lake nestled between Champlain Mountain and the Beehive summit. It is a family-friendly picnic and scenic spot. The best views of the Bowl are seen from the Champlain South Ridge Trail facing into the valley.

Hiking

The mountain lake ‘The Bowl’ is idyllically located between ‘Champlain Mountain’ in the north and ‘The Beehive’. We hike to the mountain lake in early June after a steep descent from the Beehive and walk south on the ‘Bowl Trail’ to ‘Gorham Mountain’ and later along the ‘Ocean Path’ to ‘Otter Point’.
