Description
Fundy National Park is one of Canada’s most stunning national parks, located along the Bay of Fundy in New Brunswick. Established in 1948, Fundy National Park encompases 207 square kilometers of rich Acadian forest, majestic mountains and pristine waterfalls. The oldest of Canada’s national parks east of the Rockies, Fundy National Park has a wealth of attractions to explore.
One of the main attractions of Fundy National Park is its unique geography, featuring the highest tides in the world. Visitors can explore the rugged coastline and its many caves, plus revel in the beauty of the tidal bore, as the Fundy tides rush in twice daily. With over 25 kilometers of trails, visitors can also enjoy hikes that range from gentle to vigorous, winding through coastal woodlands, deep canyons, meadows, and along the Salisbury river.
In addition to its stunning scenery, Fundy National Park also features an array of recreational activities. Keen anglers can test their skills at some of the best Salmon-fishing spots in Canada. For a real taste of traditional Maritimes life, visitors can head to the nearby Hopewell Rocks to explore the unique flowerpot formations created by the sea and air.
On the park’s western shore, visitors can take a dip in the warm waters of the swimming beach or drive on the 15-kilometer Fundy Trail Parkway. Fully paved, it’s the perfect spot to relax, take scenic views and watch the bald eagles, ospreys, and other wildlife that call the park home.
Fundy National Park is also a great place to spot wildlife. Keep an eye out for wild moose, red fox, black bears and muskrats, as well as over 200 species of birds. Plus, the park’s rivers, streams and lakes are stocked with rainbow trout and Atlantic salmon – perfect for fishing.
Fundy National Park is a truly one-of-a-kind destination, filled with incredible views, wildlife, and lots of opportunities for outdoor adventure. It’s the perfect place to soak up the stunning landscape and explore the breathtaking beauty of the Maritime Provinces.
