Back to the Woods Water Hiking Series

Cape Breton Island is open and ready to welcome you! Let’s get #BackInTheWoods!

Come out for a series of 3 Meet & Greet hikes with Cape Breton Island Ambassadors. If you’re hesitant to get out and explore this Island or want a group to hike safely with, this is your opportunity to explore 6 of the 12 waterfalls featured in our Waterfall Season. It’s also a great opportunity to be entered into our Cape Breton Adventure Weekend for 2! We’ve listed the 6 waterfalls featured in our 3 Meet & Greet hikes below. Be sure to get your hiking boots ready, it’s going to be a time! Be sure to download the Waterfall Season App for iPhone and Android phones so you can scan the QR codes. These hikes will not be led by anyone,  they are simply a chance to meet new people and enjoy the outdoors together.
