Awaken your spirit

Located in We’koqma’q, the Skye River Trail gives those who visit a feeling of serenity and spirituality.

We are proud of our heritage and extremely proud to welcome you to the Skye River Trail. Stroll through the woods with our experienced and knowledgeable guides, hear the peaceful sound of the river flowing and relax in nature.

Feel the serenity that surrounds you here as you embrace your surroundings and hear the stories told by and about the Mi’kmaq people.

Be sure to stop at the “Tree of a Thousand Faces”…and feel the mystery. Look for eagles soaring above, watching for their daily catch in the sparkling waters of the river. Enjoy your time with us and please come back again.
