CAPE BRETON HIGHLANDS, CABOT TRAIL, THE SKYLINE TRAIL


CAPE BRETON HIGHLANDS NATIONAL PARK of CANADA


A dramatic headland cliff overlooks the rugged coast from the end of this level trail. You can enjoy an eagle's view of the Cabot Trail as it winds its way down the mountain and vehicles look like toys. Watch for whales in the Gulf of St. Lawrence from the viewing decks. Moose, bald eagles, bears and numerous boreal birds live in this habitat. Be cautious with children around the cliffs and give moose a wide berth. The headland plants are very fragile and easily damaged by trampling, so stay on the boardwalk. Dogs are not permitted here as they disturb wildlife, especially moose and bear. 

Oh ya. Watch out for the coyotes!

 Where the whales at?



The jut of land just before the road in the distance is where we will lay our heads for the night.
