Any hiking trails along the coast?
Hello Cheryl,
Thank you for your question to Ask an Islander!
I'm glad you are interested in the beautiful Island! Yes, there are a few trails that take you along the coast. Blackbush Trail, far up west, is a fantastic trail right alongside the coastline. The walk is beautiful! Also, the boardwalk trail in Summerside goes directly alongside the ocean. In Charlottetown, at Victoria Park, there is a boardwalk directly beside the water that serves as an amazing walk. The Gulf Shore Parkway is another fantastic trail, located up north, near the ocean.
The Island Walk, a trail spanning across the entire province, sometimes goes near the coast and overlaps with other trails. For a guide to this walk, please click on this link. For more hiking and walking trails, click on our official trail website.
I hope you enjoy your time on the Island and get some good hiking done!
Kind regards,
Bret MacCaull
