Itinerary
DAY 1
Arrive in the Village of St. Martins. Make a quick stop at the Shipyard Cafe before hitting the trailhead at Big Salmon River. Your guides will prepare a trailside lunch on your way to your camp at Seely Beach. Our recommendation, take in some stars this night because you’re in the UNESCO Fundy Biosphere Reserve that is part of the longest stretch of undeveloped wilderness coastline in North America, there’s practically no light pollution!
DAY 2
This morning, your guides will prepare breakfast and coffee or tea before heading back on the trail. Discover the land’s natural and cultural history through your guide’s interpretation and stories. Camp at Little Salmon River, where your support team has once again set up camp and brought in fresh food.
DAY 3
Wake up again amongst the trees and either continue on the trail OR explore Walton Glen Gorge and hike through the Eye of the Needle. Return to the Village of St. Martins after being picked up by your support team.
Our guides, were extremely friendly, supportive, knowledgeable about the area and its history, prepared fantastic backcountry meals, and really became part of our little ‘group’.

We always use double kayaks that are more stable than single kayaks. While the Bay of Fundy can provide some extreme conditions, we ensure our guest's safety by keeping them informed on the weather. If our Lead Guide(s) say it is too wavy or windy, we work to tell everyone with lots of time in advance, so alternative plans can be made.
