Get ready for an adventure with some of the most breathtaking views on the northeast coast! The Teapot Mountain Trail is a local favorite that starts with a steady climb up stone stairways before rewarding you with incredible panoramas of the surrounding green mountains and the deep blue sea. The real fun begins at the summit, where you can scramble through a cave-like opening in the giant, teapot-shaped rock formation. It’s a bit of a challenge that requires using ropes, but the 360-degree views from the top are absolutely worth the effort.
