Fundy's trail network

Fundy National Park

Fundy National Park has a large trail system with soaring coastal views showcasing the highest tides in the world and the Acadian forest. Come marvel at the waterfalls, descend into moss-covered river valleys and swim in backcountry pools. If you're lucky, you may even see some of New Brunswick's wildlife! Our trails ranking uses the international system, so you can be sure you know what you are getting into.
