Irving Nature Park is a scenic coastal park located just outside Saint John, overlooking the Bay of Fundy.

Visitors can also enjoy beaches and picnic areas, as well as opportunities to spot seabirds, seals, and occasionally whales offshore.

A long, mostly level multi-use route that traces the quiet corridor of the Nashwaak River on Fredericton’s north side. The compacted-gravel surface makes it easy to walk, run, or cycle, and the trail moves between shaded woodland, open stretches, and short riverside clearings. Views of the Nashwaak appear steadily along the way, especially near bridge crossings and wider bends in the river. The trail takes its name from the Nashwaak River itself, derived from the Wolastoqey (Maliseet) word Nekawäk—often interpreted as “slow current” or “still water,” a fitting description of the calm, steady flow that defines this part of the valley.

A riverfront green space along the Saint John River, offering open views across the water toward downtown Fredericton. The park features a wide, level pathway suitable for walking, running, and cycling, with plenty of lawn area and benches along the shoreline.

The Saint John River, also known as the Wolastoq, is one of the most important waterways in New Brunswick, flowing for about 673 kilometers through the province to the Bay of Fundy. A section of the river forms the international border between New Brunswick and Maine.

The Petitcodiac River is famous for its powerful tidal bore, a wave that travels upstream as the Bay of Fundy’s massive tides push into the river. Walking along its banks, you can see the ever-changing landscape of mudflats and clay cliffs, where the water’s color shifts with the movement of the tide. Along the Trans Canada Trail, you can take a side path leading to the bridge across the river, which offers even better views of the area.

A well-built wooden and iron bridge crosses one of the creeks that flow into the Petitcodiac River. From here, you can see the clay cliffs whose rich sediment gives the river its distinctive brown color.
