 "I visualized a trail that would connect two countries and cultures, link a state and two provinces and traverse two major watersheds -- the Gulf of Maine and the Gulf of St. Lawrence."   - Dick Anderson

The Fundy Footpath is one of the last remaining coastal wilderness areas between Florida and Labrador, the views and wilderness experience are spectacular!  The trail is blazed with white blazes and are according to Appalachian Trail standards.  The campsites are primitive, water treatment is necessary, fires are not permitted, and a backpacker stove is recommended.
