Acadia National Park closed trails on March 1, 2026, to protect nesting peregrine falcons from human disturbance.
Acadia National Park has closed the Jordan Cliffs, Precipice, and Valley Cove trails and the Precipice Trail parking lot starting March 1, 2026, to protect nesting peregrine falcons.
The temporary closures aim to prevent human disturbance that could cause falcons to abandon nests, risking chick survival.
Violating the closures is a federal offense with penalties including fines or jail.
The park will monitor the area and reopen trails when safe.
In 2025, three falcon pairs nested nearby, with two chicks fledging; officials suspect human activity contributed to the failure of the other nests.
