Ride Cape Breton: 9 day cycling adventure

Join us on a 9 day cycling adventure through one of the world’s most beautiful cycling destinations, Cape Breton.

Get to know this rugged island with the ocean air in your face and panoramic views all around. Lean into the coastal curves, navigate sweeping bends to spectacular look-offs, pass through quaint fishing villages, UNESCO recognized biospheres and historic townships. 

You will pedal one of the world’s top cycling routes, the Cabot Trail, but this ride promises so much more. Get a taste of 18th-century living at the Fortress of Louisbourg on the eve of the ride. Enjoy a traditional meal with the Mi’kmaq and explore the traditional Acadian Village of Cheticamp, steeped in history, and listen to the songs and sounds of the island’s Gaelic culture. Ride Cape Breton is the ultimate way to experience Cape Breton.
