East Coast Trail

The East Coast Trail is a series of over 300 km of interconnecting trails along the east coast of the Avalon Peninsula. There are numerous access points and various degrees of difficulty.
Today we went to Petty Harbour, pretty little fishing village. We visited the mini aquarium, along with a school group and a day camp. Lots of little rug rats running around. Little Red Dog was not a bit intimidated by the wolf fish.

After the aquarium we had a little walk around town, then had a lovely fish taco lunch overlooking the harbour at Chafe's Restaurant.

Suitably fortified, we started our trek along the East Coast Trail. This section of the trail goes right along the top of the cliffs on the coast of the Atlantic Ocean. Stunning scenery and rugged coastline.






Our odyssey took us through forest, over streams, up hills and down. Mostly moderate terrain except this very steep descent. Little Red Dog found it quite intimidating. But we all arrived at our destination safely.
I believe that tonight will be a quiet evening as we rest our weary bones. It's been a very active week. And tomorow IS Friday. Party night!!!
