Ben Eoin Trail
The Ben Eoin Trail starts at the Ben Eoin Provincial Picnic Park. A hiker’s sign indicates the trailhead in the park. A very nice steady hike that climbs along a well worn path. It climbs uphill through large and old Birch and Beech Trees. At the top of the mountain is a well cleared look-off of solid ground and large flat stone. Here you can take in a breathtaking view of the Bras d’Or Lakes below or open your pack for a picnic, but don’t leave any litter.
