When you come to Cape Breton hiking is something that everyone has to do! There are hikes for every age and every ability.
The North Highlands Nordic Ski Club (NHN) was founded in 1977 by a small group of enthusiastic cross country skiers who shared a love of winter and of the splendid scenery in the Northeast Highlands Area of Cape Breton Island, Nova Scotia.
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!
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.
While in Cape Breton, if wanting a real slice-of-life night out, be sure to check out one of our dandy dances.
Atlantic lobster from Cape Breton Island is renowned for being the freshest and some of the tastiest lobster in the world.
Grab a pair of snowshoes and enjoy your latest winter adventure in Chéticamp along the Cabot Trail!
There are so many hiking trails with phenomenal views in Cape Breton that it’s difficult to narrow it down to 5.
No matter the time of year, for my wife and I, the weekend means heading to the Cabot Trail for an adventure.
