Fourth Edition

by Susan Young de Biagi

photographs by Keith Vaughan

A stunningly photographed guide to the Cabot trail and the whale watching, birding, hiking and more that Cape Breton Island is famous for.

The Cabot Trail is famed for spectacular views of mountains, ocean and forest. Then there are its hidden treasures, its sandy beaches and peaceful woodland trails, the habitat of wild birds and animals, as well as many species of wildflowers and trees.

This book offers the visitor a guide to the Cabot Trail itself, and to many of the other fine attractions of Cape Breton Island. More than a hundred images by photographer Keith Vaughan capture the area at its best. Author Susan Biagi shares her knowledge of Cape Breton's heritage and culture, with information and suggestions about the best attractions to visit.

Whether it's whale watching, birding, hiking, swimming, golfing or simply sightseeing you enjoy, this book will help visitors make the most of their tour of the Cabot Trail and Cape Breton Island. It also makes a wonderful souvenir of one of Canada's most beautiful and unforgettable areas.
