Coastal Trail
A low coastal route through tuckamore and along cobble beaches.
Route overview
Walk from Baker's Brook toward Green Point and return before tide, weather or daylight limits progress.
Follow the old winter mail road between fishing-community sites, moving through dense wind-shaped forest, ponds and cobble shoreline. Cold Atlantic conditions can make this easy profile feel more serious.
