Going After the Big Ones EVERY TRAVEL DESTINATION has its list of things you must do. In Prince Edward Island, it%u2019s get outside! To spend all your time indoors on PEI would be like going to a great art museum to read the newspaper. What you%u2019d miss! Running, walking, biking. There are 25 bicycle rental shops on the Island, and with good reason: cycling is a great way to get around. The highest elevation is 142 meters (465 feet) above sea level, with much of the land rising and falling in gentle slopes. Add the Confederation Trail with its 357 kilometres (221 miles) of flat, groomed surface and you have a biker%u2019s and hiker%u2019s dream. Canoeing, kayaking, fishing. The Island is surrounded by warm summer water. If you%u2019re not in the ocean, you%u2019ll want to be on it. (Did we mention snorkeling, swimming, seal watching or parasailing?) Camping. When your active, fresh-air day ends and you are ready to slow down, there%u2019s no better way than by spending a night in one of our campgrounds. Breathe in the salt-tinged air and let the sound of the waves lull you to sleep.
