Kids & FamilyOutdoorSelfie Spot

As one of Canada’s most enchanting parks, where mountains meet the sea and lush, forested river canyons carve into the ancient plateau, edged by rust-coloured cliffs. There are plenty of great hiking trails, fishing trails and campsites for you to enjoy.

Throughout the park, keep your eyes open for moose, bald eagles, minke or pilot whales breaking through the water.
