Sep 29, 2004 - Cape Breton Island and Ceilidh Trail

We crossed the causeway onto Cape Breton Island. The island is the north-eastern part of Nova Scotia separated from it by the Strait of Canso and linked by a dam, the Canso Causeway. We followed the Ceilidh Trail which offers stunning vistas of rugged coastline , bays and inlets, verdant hills and rolling farmlands as it follows the shore of western Cape Breton for 67 miles from the Canso Causeway to the Cabolt Trail. This area has a large number of French and Scottish immigrants who settled here between the 1780’s and 1820’s.
