When Cape Breton Island dons its blanket of snow, it transforms into a winter wonderland bursting with adventure and serene beauty.

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.

The Gaels celebrated their culture not in huge buildings or sculptures but in their songs. Their songs told the stories of the people, the land, good times and bad, love's lost and yearned for.

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.

It is well-established that dance tradition is an important, if not defining, influence on Cape Breton's traditional music.
