  • My friends, Scott, Brandon and I take on Cape Chignecto Provincial Park for the second time. We tackled this 65 km trail in May 2022 and completed the total 65km loop. On this trip, we take the reverse loop for 54 km checking out the sights at Mill Brook, Refugee Cove, Big Bald Rock, and Seal Cove. We camped for two nights and stayed for three days. Brandon and Scott opted for a tent, while I stayed in my Warbonnet Original Blackbird Hammock. We stocked dehydrated meals, and tons of light, high-calorie snacks to keep us fueled throughout the day.
    The Cape Chignecto Provincial Park, as shown in the intro is no walk in the park! This is a challenging trail, but the experience is worth the pain! This video serves as an overview of the park, a look at our overnight setups and to bring you along to see the sights and sounds. If you visit Nova Scotia and love a good challenging hike, there is no better place to go than Cape Chignecto.
    Huge shoutout to @ScottMcRae26 for trekking in his work drone to allow us to get some outstanding shots of the coastal sections of this trip.

    Hahah you were wayyy off your expected daily distances there. Heading back here in two weeks. Hiked it in 2017. Looking forward to the return.

      Way off! The adjustment to stay at Refugee Cove was our original plan but pushing it just wouldn't have been wise. Enjoy your trip back, it's such an awesome trail!

    When you can, you might want to invest in a battery mic

      A good mic is definitely top of my list!

      I watch a lot of camping videos. Some of my favorite parts are friends around the (fire/stove), sharing stories and relaxing
