Discover the Cabot Trail, a beautiful scenic route that follows the coast of Cape Breton Island, between the sea and the mountains. The trail follows the north coast of the island and climbs up to the Highlands National Park for breathtaking views of the Atlantic.
From there, you will reach Cheticamp, the center of the region's Acadian heritage, for an overview of the region's Francophone culture. You will then head to Sydney and its beautiful harbour, via the Bras d'Or Lake and its quiet roads. Take the opportunity to visit the Fortress of Louisbourg, the largest reconstruction of an 18th century French fortified town on the continent. John Cabot captured the beauty of the area in 1497. Now it's your turn to do the same!
