Skyline Trail in Nova Scotia, Kanada

  • Cape Breton Highlands National Park: The Cape Breton Highlands National Park is located in the north of Nova Scotia and has to offer almost everything. From cliffs to long white sandy beaches to golf courses you will find anything your heart desires. Embark on a trekking or hiking tour, play golf or just relax on the beach. With a bit of luck, you can also see some wild animals such as coyotes, black bears and bald eagles on one of your tours.
  • The capital Halifax: In the capital Halifax a visit to the Halifax Public Gardens in the heart of the city is recommended. Here you will find a small oasis with hundreds of dahlias, fountains, statues and trees amidst the hustle and bustle of the city. Afterwards you can stroll through the Seaport Farmer's Market at the harbour and stock up on some delicacies. Also make sure to visit Pier 21, the Canadian Museum of Immigration.
  • Skyline Trail: The Skyline Trail is located in Cape Breton Highlands National Park and can be easily reached by rental car. The circular trail leads over grass and moss to a viewing platform from where you can enjoy a magnificent view of the Nova Scotia countryside. The last part of the Skyline Trail consists of a long wooden staircase. With a bit of luck, you may be able to see bears and moose in their natural habitat on your walk.

Montreal

Once you have visited all the highlights on your list for Québec, the journey by rental car can continue to Montreal. The trip will only take about three hours with the right rental car. Montreal offers a unique blend of Canadian and French culture. Here you will find the best of both worlds. Drive to highlights such as Mount Royal, the McCord Museum and the Montreal Biosphere.

Ottawa, the capital of Canada, lies directly on the Rideau Canal and is often underestimated. You can rent a car in Ottawa to drive to historic sites, national attractions and government buildings. If you'd like to get something to eat afterwards, you can explore Ottawa's famous and varied food scene. For example, try the typical Canadian lard pastry "Beavertail", which you can pimp with numerous toppings such as smarties, cinnamon or whipped cream.

Toronto

The last destination of your road trip could be Toronto. Visit the Canadian National Tower, from where you can enjoy a gigantic view over the city. In the case of good weather you can even see as far as the USA. Don't miss the Distillery District if you like beer, good food and history. The old industrial area is located in the east of downtown Toronto and offers numerous cafes, restaurants and other shops. Treat yourself to a cup of coffee and enjoy Toronto!
