Discover Cape Breton
Rugged, stunning, breathtaking: Cape Breton is wild beauty at its most enchanting. The Cabot Trail runs through 185 miles of stunning coastline, each view as it opens up more captivating than the last.

To explore this lovely part of Cape Breton properly, you should allow around 4 days. A hike along the Skyline Trail is so worthwhile, and you get to snap some amazing photos to boot! Other stopping off points should include Pleasant Bay (Tip: The best time for whale watching is June to October!), Cape Smokey (for a memorable gondola ride), as well as MacKenzie Mountain Lookout:for breathtaking views.

We have found you a great base for your adventure: The Cabot Trail Motel is perfectly located for accessing the Trail: Its comfortable rooms and friendly service, as well as its great onsite restaurant come highly praised by its guests!
