Sydney Museum (formerly Cape Breton Centre for Heritage and Science)

Cape Breton Island has so many awesome places to explore and all of these places are right in our backyards.

We all need some motivation to leave the house, put our boots on and hit the trails. Some do it to stay in shape, some do it to meet fellow hikers and some do it just to reconnect with Mother Nature.

Cape Breton is filled with incredible natural places. It's home to meandering rivers, rolling hills, cascading waterfalls and scenic lakes. These locations are beautiful in every season but they really shine in the fall.

This fall, explore Cape Breton's variety of breweries and distilleries found all over the island.

Cross country skiing in the highlands is definitely unlike any skiing we had done before. There’s no groomed track or perfectly flat terrain to ski, instead it’s an adventure in its own right every time we venture into the snowy highlands.

There are two great ways to make your next trip to the Cape Breton Highlands National Park one you’ll never forget.
