Donate to Support the Restoration of the Bar Harbor Shore Path
This past winter, on January 10th and 13th, unprecedented coastal storms devastated significant sections of our beloved Shore Path.
Wave after crashing wave washed large sections of the path out to sea while destroying 500' of retaining walls. Today, what you've known as a tranquil stroll by the sea is a stark reminder of nature's force, rendering the path inaccessible.
For 141 years, the Bar Harbor Village Improvement Association (VIA) as part of its mission, has been the silent guardian of the Shore Path, a testament to stewardship and the generosity of private landowners who have shared this treasure with our community and visitors like you.
Through the incredible support of the Bar Harbor Inn and the unwavering financial commitment of the VIA, we've raised $625,000 towards the restoration of our cherished path.
