Shubenacadie Canal and Waterway

Description Used by the native Mi'kmaq for centuries, the Shubenacadie waterway was carved out of bedrock by glaciers during the last ice age, before construction officially began in 1826.

Canoeing and kayaking enthusiasts love the Canal, as do rafters, who crave the challenge of the tidal bore rapids. The more sedate tourist can walk along the many trails beside the Canal, and pitch a tent in one of the nearby campgrounds.
