Trans Canada Trail in New Brunswick Blog
Fall was in the air when we reached the fourth province of our #Hike4Birds across Canada on the 28,000 km long Trans Canada Trail - New Brunswick. We hiked the Marshes Trail from the Cape Jourimain Nature Center to Sackville, before trekking north to Moncton and then following the Dobson Trail and the world-famous Fundy Footpath through the forested Fundy Biosphere Reserve. Walking on the ocean floor with goats, sleeping in a haunted jail cell, exploring covered bridges, and watching migratory shorebirds on the Bay of Fundy mud flats were highlights we experienced on the rail trails, footpaths, and cycling routes of New Brunswick, Canada. Finally, as the days grew shorter we crossed the territory of the Wolastoqiyik, walking northward along the banks of the beautiful St. John River to Edmunston and the border with Quebec.
This blog documents our #Hike4Birds on the Trans Canada Trail (formerly the Great Trail) in New Brunswick. We invite you to Come Walk With Us by exploring our daily trail updates, where we share photographs and stories of the birds, natural landscapes, histories, challenges, and highlights we experienced while traveling across Canada on foot. Happy Trails!
