east coast trail印象

So many options for short hikes or day hikes and absolutely breathtaking views no matter where you go. Highly recommended for anyone, just do a bit of research before you set off to see how difficult that particular piece of the trail is and make sure you're properly prepared (water, snacks, cell phone, good shoes, jacket - it gets a bit windy near the water).

My boyfriend and I have just completed the 7km hike from Bay Bulls to Witless Bay..Gorgeous cliff side trek that goes through lush forests. The trail is very well maintained with boardwalks set up over rivers..etc..Lucky to have sunshine peaking through today, very little wind today as well! Ddid not see one single person, only evidence of life was the moose foot prints in the mud! Rated as a moderate hike by the East Coast Trail, my boyfriend and I are quite fitness oriented and completed in 2.5 hours (marked as 3-4 hours).Definitely recommend for fantastic views, not super challenging and peaceful!

I likes the well groomed trail and especially the view of Logy Bay, Outer Cove, Middle Cove and Torbay. No dislikes

Extensive trail network. The best I have ever experienced anywhere in the world. Buy the maps so you can plan ahead and benefit from the predetermined intensity.

Before you embark, it is best to check out their website, go to a tourist office and an outdoor outfitter. 265 long and various parts are suited to various levels and lengths.My favourite was The beaches Walk which starts of in Whitless Bay. I also liked the Cape Spear Hike. Bring food, plenty of water as for the most part, there is nowhere to pick up anything and no restrooms.

We had so much fun hiking the East Coast Trail. Got to explore so many different parts of Newfoundland from beaches, to cliffs, to the unique towns. I would recommend a map because some of the trails can be hard to follow, but as long as you know where the coast is you won't have a hard time finding your way. If you like being outdoors and exploring, this is something you definitely want to do!

We travelled to Newfoundland specifically to hike sections of this trail. We were extremely pleased with what we found.The trail is well designed and hiker friendly with lots of planking through bogs so your feet stay dry and steps to assist with ascents and descents. There are definitely some places where you have to pick your way on the rocks through streams and small rivers, but we found that we got more adept at this task as we learned better strategies for dealing with these water obstacles. Each hike we did had a lot of variety ranging from breathtaking views as we travelled along the top of spectacular cliffs to quiet sections through wooded areas. The hikes in the northern section were easy to get to; the trail heads were just off the road. Several of the hikes south of St. John’s required traversing access roads which were arduous and added many kilometers and a good deal of time to the hike.We were there in mid-September 2014 and we were amazed at how underutilized the trail seems to be. It was good hiking weather yet there were multiple days that we did not see another person for the entire time we were hiking. It was great for us, but a pity that more folks are not out there taking advantage of this resource.Great hiking, great views!

Loved St.John's so much I bought a house right next to a trail, this is a must visit place for photographers. During the simmer you can take a picture with a whale, eagle and iceberg in the one shot. If you like getting out doors for some fresh air and exercise this is the place for you.

I loved the cardio and great exercise and the views were amazing that day! We stopped and had a picnic in one of the bays and enjoyed views of icebergs. The whole hike was amazing

we had a nice hike with great views until the fog rolled in. The trail is well maintained and marked. We had a small dog accompany us that seemed to live locally and was known to other hikers on the trail.
