Canada | The Stunning East Coast Trail

The East Coast Trail is among Canada’s most spectacular hikes, over 300 kilometers of developed trails that run along the East Coast of Newfoundland. The developed portion starts north of St. John’s at Cape St. Francis and runs south to Cappahayden. There are several different points that access individual sections of the trail for shorter hikes. Along the towering cliffs and headlands the trail covers, hikers can find fjords, sea stacks, seabird colonies, lighthouses, abandoned coastal villages, whales, icebergs, puffins, archaeological digs (one not far from St. John’s) and the world’s southernmost caribou herd. From a section of the trail leading from Bay Bulls north to Shoal Bay, you can reach the natural sea geyser, The Spout.
