About Us<\/h1>\n
The East Coast Trail unites genuine wilderness hiking with richly historic communities from Topsail Beach, to Cape St. Francis, to Cappahayden on Newfoundland & Labrador’s Avalon Peninsula.<\/div>\n
\n
There are 25 paths to explore…<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n<\/blockquote>\n
The paths of the East Coast Trail take you past towering cliffs and headlands, sea stacks, deep fjords, and a natural wave-driven geyser called the Spout. Experience abandoned settlements, lighthouses, ecological reserves, seabird colonies, whales, icebergs, the world’s southernmost caribou herd, historic sites, a 50-metre suspension bridge, two active archaeological dig sites, and many more attractions.<\/div>\n
