Bubble Rock
A glacial boulder on the summit of South Bubble that looks as though it might tumble off the edge; a short hike reaches it, with views over Jordan Pond.
Bubble Rock is a granite glacial erratic weighing about 14 tons. A glacier carried it from some 30 km away and left it at the cliff edge on the summit of South Bubble, where it looks as though it could roll off at any moment. The round trip from the Bubble Mountain parking area is about 1.6 km with a gentle grade. From the top you can take in the full view of Jordan Pond, making it an excellent short hike. The parking area is small, so in summer it is best to use the free shuttle.
