Rigolet Boardwalk

Rigolet is home to an incredible boardwalk. It’s the longest boardwalk not just in Labrador, not just in Canada – BUT ALL OF NORTH AMERICA!

Whether you want to challenge the trail from start to finish or just take in view of the beautiful seaside, the boardwalk is equipped with facilities like gazebos and shelters to let you take a break and take in the environment. Beautiful surrounding landscapes, local wildlife, and Inuit historical sites await you at the Rigolet boardwalk!
