Duck Brook Fall is located near the Duck Brooke Bridge and thus easily accessible. However, the way down from the carriage road can be slippery so take care on wet rocks.

Witch Hole Pond was part of the first land donation to Acadia National Park. The area was ravaged by a fire in 1947, and harbors the ruins of an old estate, saw mill, quarry, and horse stables. The name "Witch Hollow" was around long before then, and its origins are a mystery.
