We've driven the Trail several times and have never failed to be impressed and amazed. Others have said to take at least a day to do it properly, and I agree. We've done it both clockwise and counterclockwise, and I have to say that I prefer the counter. Definitely plan on stopping in Ingonish and Neils Harbour for pictures. You... More

I travel the Cabot Trail at least 8-10 times a year. I am fortunate to live on this great island and take advantage of this privilege. You MUST set aside a whole day to do the trail properly. I strongly recommend going in a counter clockwise loop, starting at the Englishtown ferry. This will give you the most sunlight and... More

We did the Cabot Trail in a Day and a half. We camped over night and did whale watching in the morning (only $20). the trail was beautiful and the drive was easy. I would highly recommend doing this trip!

There's nothing I didn't like on this trip. If you're going to the Maritimes, you have to go here. Just Google it - the photos aren't even close to doing it justice!

Unfortunately, the water was very rough, and we didn't see any... More

Living on the Atlantic stretch of the Cabot Trail, I get to experience its beauty every day. We particularly enjoy the off-the-beaten-path hikes and walks in and around St.Ann's Bay: The Indian Brook Wilderness with its myriad of waterfalls and swimming holes; the Red Island Trail, an easy walk through typical Cape Breton forest, along several bodies of water, including...

Once on the trail it's hard to leave. People should be granted a stay for any length of time they can muster!
