A coastal highlands park on the Bay of Fundy, known for dense Acadian forest, deep river valleys, and some of the highest tides in the world. Trails range from short woodland loops to longer routes that link waterfalls, lakes, and exposed ridgelines. Expect a mix of balsam fir, black spruce, red maple, and birch throughout the interior, with wetter areas supporting bogs and mossy groundcover. Terrain varies from mostly level lakeside paths to steep climbs in the river gorges. The park is well-signed, with clear trailheads, campgrounds, and multiple access points along the main park road. Suitable for hiking, running, and, in designated areas, biking.

Situated on the rugged coastline of the Bay of Fundy, Fundy National Park is a 20,598-hectare park. It is primarily renowned for two things: the world's highest tides (an incredible tidal phenomenon) and its unique blend of coastal wilderness and Acadian forest.

The magic of Fundy National Park lies in its contrasts: from rugged forest trails and dramatic cliffs to tranquil rivers and cascading waterfalls. Located on the edge of the Bay of Fundy, the park is shaped by the world’s highest tides, which reveal vast mudflats and rocky shores twice a day. Beyond its famous tides, you can hike through dense sugar-maple forests, visit waterfalls and ponds, and enjoy the calm of the inland wilderness. With over 100 km of trails, scenic lakes, and wildlife including moose and loons, this area of the park offers a true immersion in New Brunswick’s native forest.

The Laverty Falls give their name to one of the most popular hiking trails in Fundy National Park. Here the water flows beautifully over a rock wall about twelve meters high, below which there is a large and also smaller natural pool in which you can swim on hot summer days.
