National Geographic Traveler continue reading...
A magnificent wilderness, alive with the ever-present scent of the sea. The haunting sound of a distant bagpipe becomes the mystical song of a waterfall. Baddeck, a treasure of a town nestled on the shores of the Bras d’Or Lakes. The Cabot Trail winds like a black ribbon among the cliffs, with breathtaking vistas at every turn. Snow crabs fresh from the sea. The ancient footpaths of some of Cape Breton’s first Scot settlers on Fair Alistairs Mountain. Cheticamp, a vibrant community rich in Acadian culture. Eagles and moose on the Skyline Trail; whales play off the coast. The ‘joyful noise’ of a ceilidh, the music of Acadian French and the Gaelic still spoken here. A stunning, cliff-bound peninsula juts out into Ingonish Bay. The spectacular view from atop Franey Mountain.
A magical experience.
