Great article, just a couple things for those who intend to do themselves a favour, and come here themeselves:ġ. I loved to see all the small harbours on our journey through CB and it is well worth a visit and they saying is so true, if you visit there you will leave a bit of your heart there. Of course had to visit the GlenOra distillery which looks very Scottish.Ever time we have stayed there we were in The Silver DArt Lodge in Baddeck and this was so central for everywhere we went and we went on the boat trip from Baddeck Pier which was an amazing afternoon and were lucky enough to see the Bald EAgles. I have been over for the Celtic Colours festival 3 times and this was a lifetime experience from watching concerts in Fire Service halls in the north to watching concerts in very large Community halls. It is the most beautiful place to visit and the people of Cape Breton are so friendly. Cape Breton – well the only way I can explain it is there is a surprise round every corner.

It is even recommended to make a base for a day or two to explore and do day trips from your campsite or hotel. But the real views happen when you get out of the car.īoook your accommodation in advance. There are so many things to see and do, you’ll really be missing out.ĭriving it in a counter clockwise direction puts you on the outside lane offering better views of the coast. While the Cabot Trail can be driven in one short day, we suggest 3-5 days to drive the Cabot Trail. We saw lots of Bald Eagles on the Cabot Trail.
