Delaps Cove Trail

As we turned onto the Hollow Mountain Road this afternoon on our way to the Delaps Cove Trail, we saw a car ahead with its 4-way flashers on. We rolled up to see if they needed help, and discovered a large family of tourists from Ontario. They asked us if we knew the way to the Delaps Cove Trail (they had no cell service and couldn’t find their way). 

We were in a slightly better position than they were, with offline maps, and so we suggested they follow us, and off we went in convoy. Twenty minutes, and some challenging hills later, Lisa pulled the car up to the trailhead, with our Ontario charges following behind.

The government describes the trail like this:

The Trail meanders through 130 acres of canopied forests. Nature enthusiasts will enjoy the natural splendour of the area and breathe in the briny, salt air that surrounds the windswept coastline of the Bay of Fundy. As well as being a great place to hike, the trail provides opportunities for bird watching and photography.

That’s a pretty accurate description: the walk along the trail to the Bay of Fundy was cool, briny, and through a fascinating landscape.
