South Shore Secrets Tour

South Shore Secrets TourThe best part of Nova Scotia's Lighthouse Route is that it so frequently follows the water’s edge; quiet roads skirt white-sand beaches where coastal treasures await. This landscape is perfect for a gentle bike ride. Friendly people, fishing villages, secluded anchorages, boat builders, antique shops and cozy cafes adorn fantastic rides along obscure coastal stretches. You can dine on lobster, swim in the ocean, feel the sand between your toes and appreciate the cooling sea breeze in your hair. The highlights are numerous; from the UNESCO heritage township of Lunenburg to a remote beach with curious seals, this is a perfect introduction to Nova Scotia’s charms. You will know why so many visitors return again and again.

The Cabot Trail Tour

Nova Scotia Cabot TrailThis is among the world’s greatest rides; one that all touring cyclists should have on their “must-ride” list! The beautiful coast, the most dramatic in Nova Scotia, meets the breathtaking highlands allowing you appreciate both to the fullest. You will explore the valley of the Margaree River, and on some days, expand your rides onto beautiful wooded trails, all while staying at inns famous for their individuality and charm. Many find the highlight a ride through beech woods to salmon pools, where you can swim below clear waterfalls. The cycling includes some very challenging sections but our support van is always standing by. Combining such awe-inspiring scenery, out-of–the-way charm, unusual inns, and exceptional cuisine makes this loop ride an exquisite experience you simply must have!
