The Cabot Trail winds around the rocky, misty shores of Cape Breton Island, offering some of the most breathtaking coastal scenery in North America. The route takes in a mix of rugged coastline, sheltered coves and rolling highlands, with plenty of opportunities to stop and explore. Highlights include the fishing villages of Margaree Harbour and Cheticamp, the awe-inspiring Skyline Trail and the Cape Breton Highlands National Park. Keep your eyes peeled for whales and dolphins, and be sure to pack a raincoat – the weather can be unpredictable.
