Fundy National Park preserves some of the last remaining wilderness in southern New Brunswick. Here, the conifer-dominated Caledonia Highlands roll down to meet the Bay of Fundy.
The tides of the Bay of Fundy are the highest and most powerful in the world and this park borders this bay of giant tides. Twice a day, the ocean water rolls in rising high and then retreating, exposing more than a half-mile of the bay's floor.
The park also protects a portion of the Acadian Highlands natural region.
The park trails lead visitors through lush green forests and by tumbling brooks and sparkling waterfalls. Forests were logged for at least a century before the area became a national park in 1948.
Today, the park is a popular vacation spot where visitors relax, learn about and experience the maritime environment.
Park naturalists lead beach walks, guided hikes and evening programs from late June to mid-October.
The park also offers four family campgrounds and 13 backcountry campsites, each with its own special features.
