Textiles & Treasures Trail

The Textiles & Treasures Trail is a self-guided summer experience along Nova Scotia’s scenic North Shore. Explore a unique collection of studios, farms, shops, and local businesses—each stop is a treasure in itself! Discover wool and fabrics, handcrafted textiles, pottery, and artisanal goods while meeting the makers behind them. Pick up a trail passport and stamp your way to summer memories — and prizes!

Enjoy creative tourism, slow travel, and connection with the region’s artistic and cultural makers. Perfect for fibre enthusiasts and road trippers alike, featuring both quintessential stops and hidden gems.
