Bathurstのおすすめウォーキング＆ハイキングルート

The Sentier Nepisiguit Mi’gmaq Trail is a 147-kilometer backpacking route that follows the Nepisiguit River from Daly Point Nature Reserve to Mount Carleton Provincial Park. The trail traces Mi’gmaq travel routes that are estimated to be more than 5,000 years old.

The Nepisiguit River winds through northern New Brunswick from the highlands to Chaleur Bay, cutting through forests, valleys, and small communities along the way. It’s best known as a salmon river, with long stretches that feel wild and untouched even though you’re never far from a road. The water is cold, clear, and fast-moving in places, especially in spring, and calmer as it nears the bay.

Pabineau Falls is a wide, powerful waterfall tucked along the Nepisiguit River. It’s known for its broad rock face and strong current, especially impressive after heavy rain or spring melt. A short trail leads to viewpoints where you can feel the mist and hear the rush of water long before you see it.

Middle River is a small waterway that flows into the Bathurst Basin, and the riverbanks and surrounding wetlands offer excellent opportunities for photography.

Chaleur Bay sits along the northern coast of New Brunswick, stretching from the city of Bathurst to the Acadian Peninsula and across to Quebec’s Gaspé Peninsula. It’s considered one of the most beautiful bays in the world, known for its sheltered waters, mild coastal climate, and charming seaside villages.

A small loop trail connects to several other paths in the park. The area is mostly forested, but along this section, you’ll pass a few clearings and can continue on La Sauterelle Trail to reach a pond.

A small brook forms two ponds that make the walk here especially pleasant. The ponds are peaceful and surrounded by forest, with grassy areas nearby that are perfect for a picnic.

In this park near Bathurst, you’ll find an extensive network of walking and mountain biking trails that you can combine to create your own route. This trail is part of the Snow Bears Loop. Don’t forget to bring bug spray!
