Our region – the northeast Highlands of Cape Breton Island – is a mountainous, rocky one, with harsh weather and many, although small, pockets of arable land. One of the primary goals of the Cape North Farmer’s Market is to bring about a resurgence in growing, selling, and eating local food. The fresh produce, fish, maple syrup, honey, preserves, and baked goods at the market may be limited in quantity but they are unsurpassed in quality, and our vendors are the friendliest you’ll find anywhere!
Come and support the first farmer’s market “north of Smokey”, on the Cabot Trail at the top of Cape Breton Island.

Sit back, relax and enjoy a meal on one of Cape Breton Island's many patios. Whether you're oceanside, beachside or buried in the mountains, you won't regret exploring these patio options.
Waterfalls are one of the natural wonders that remain epic to even the casual adventurer. Cape Breton Island has an awe-inspiring variety of waterfalls that will leave you wanting to search for more!
When you walk out onto the ice in South Harbour, flanked by the Cape Breton Highlands and one of the nicest beaches in Atlantic Canada and the Atlantic Ocean, catching a fish is simply a bonus.
Looking for a more pampered winter getaway? Spend a few nights at the Inverary Resort to decompress, treat yourself to a luxe cocktail and catch up on some much-deserved sleep in their new lodge.
Have you been looking for a way to get out and enjoy this winter season? Well, how about a day snowshoeing in the mountains or along the coastline and then warming up next to a wood stove inside a cozy cabin with a hot cup of coffee?
Snowshoe your way through the beautiful hills, valleys and mountains of Cape Breton Island. Winter is no time to hibernate, with so many amazing trails to choose from you'll be way too busy to sleep!
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.
Just north of the Cabot Trail is a beautiful corner of Cape Breton Island filled with rugged coast lines, mountains that plunge to the sea and some of the Island's most colourful characters.
Why not give snowshoeing a try this winter. Check out our list of places to rent snowshoes so you can test out this winter sport before committing to purchasing any gear.
