Kouchibouguac National Park

Due to COVID-19, some trails and facilities in the park are closed which limits where you can go and what you can do.
However, Kouchibouguac National Park ks truly a nature's dream. We hiled about halfway to Major Collock (one way mountain bike trail) there was not a soul in sight.
We saw 2 beautiful eagles, enough partridge to fill a pear tree ? and a beautiful sunset over the water.

Campground was beautiful and well laid out. The trails were well marked and interesting, despite the fairly flat terrain. Definitely more a park for biking and walking rather than challenging hikes. Kelly's Beach is a true gem. The water was lovely and the beach is sandy and clean. The walk on the boardwalk was well managed for current safety protocols.

Park was very clean and had lots of well maintained trails. Make sure you research for restrictions/closures that may be happening at that time. No dogs on Kelly's beach.

Spent the night at the "Sipu" backcountry camp site. Really nice campsite with plenty of tent pads, a bear hang, and a great view of the water. It's a really easy walk in.

I wouldn't say it's somewhere to go if hiking is your main goal as the longest trail in the park is around 8km. It's a nice spot to hang out around camp though for sure.

Really nice spot with gorgeous beaches, waterways and bike paths. Some fun accessible hikes as well. The bike paths are all double wide with finely crushed gravel. There is one mountain biking trail which is easy and fun for the whole family. No need for a high end mountain bike on that trail. Campground facilities seem to have been renovated recently. Campfire wood was decently priced and super dry. We stayed in the summer, but it looks like the park has some great winter potential.
