    Marginal Way is a pretty flat, 1-mile path that overlooks the coastline. The ocean cliffs feature bench and overlook areas that are picture-worthy. Don't plan on setting any speed records on this busy section of trail!

    Embark on a moderate jogging route along the scenic Maine coastline, offering continuous views of the Atlantic Ocean. This 3.4-mile (5.5 km) path features rocky shores, sandy coves, and tidal pools as you gain a gentle 54 feet (16 metres) in elevation. You can complete this refreshing jog in about 34 minutes, enjoying the natural flora like wildflowers and wild roses that line the way.

    Since the Marginal Way is a popular destination, consider starting your jog early in the morning or during off-peak times to avoid crowds. Parking is available at various points along the trail, making access convenient. Be aware that during winter months, the path is not maintained and can have icy patches, so plan your visit accordingly.

    The route uniquely connects Ogunquit Beach with Perkins Cove, passing the distinctive Perkins Cove Pedestrian Drawbridge. As you jog, you will find 39 benches strategically placed along the path, inviting you to pause and fully appreciate the expansive coastal scenery and ocean breeze.
