Introducing Kouchibouguac National Park

Beaches, lagoons and offshore sand dunes extending for 25km make this park. The sands invite strolling, bird-watching and clam-digging. The park also encompasses acres of forest and salt marshes, crisscrossed or skirted by biking paths, hiking trails and groomed cross-country ski tracks. Kouchibouguac (koosh-e-boo-gwack), a Mi’kmaq word meaning ‘river of long tides, ’ also has populations of moose, deer and black bear. For more information try the visitors centre (506-876-2443; www.pc.gc.ca/kouchibouguac; 186 Hwy 117; daily park admission adult/child/family $7/3.50/17.30, season pass child/adult $18/35; 8am-8pm Jul & Aug, 9am-5pm mid-May–mid-Oct).
