Cape Breton Highlands National Park
Where mountains meet the sea and wilderness stretches as far as the eye can wander.
Trace the edge of an ancient plateau where forested canyons cut through the Highlands and rugged peaks tumble toward the Atlantic. Walk among moose and songbirds, pitch a tent beneath endless stars or hike trails that lead to views too big for words. Wrapped around the world-famous Cabot Trail, this vast 950 square kilometre sanctuary invites you to reconnect with nature, with wonder and maybe even with yourself. In this northern corner of the Island, cliffs rise, rivers run wild and every lookout leaves you breathless.
