Cabot Trail Attractions

The Cabot Trail is a 300km (190mi) stretch in the north-west of the island, starting from Baddeck. It got its name from the Italian seafarer Giovanni Caboto (John Cabot), who is thought to have been the first to land in North America in 1497.

The enchanting combination of prairieland, hills and forests together with the proximity of the sea must make the Cabot Trail one of the most beautiful scenic stretches in the whole of North America.
Despite the name, the Cabot Trail is actually a roadway.
