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.

Whether it's whale watching, birding, hiking, swimming, golfing or simply sight-seeing you enjoy, this book will help you make the most of your 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.
