Fundy
National Park
One of the most beautiful parks in the Maritime
Provinces. Picture yourself gliding effortlessly over the
glassy surface of a sheltered cove, hiking a beautiful coastal trail
with panoramic views, picnicking beside a thundering waterfall,
swimming in a salt water pool, or walking along a solitary,
misty beach with only the gulls and the waves for company.

A park for all
seasons...
Preserved
in 1948, the 206 sq. km National Park maintains 110 km of hiking
trails, approximately 40 km of mountain biking trails, four beautiful
campgrounds, five wilderness camping areas and numerous picnic areas.
Swim in the saltwater pool, at Bennett Lake, or in natural pools
carved from the rocks by the rushing waters of the Broad River.
Autumn is a special time of year as the hardwood
ridges glow with color in the crisp air. Serviced camping is available
until Thanksgiving Weekend.
And then there is winter.....park staff groom
kilometers of cross-country ski trails and snowshoe trails as well as
a sledding hill for the kids. The Point Wolfe shelter is
available for overnight excursions with advance reservation.
