Kejimkujik National Park and National Historic Site of Canada

Cycling

Bicycling is an activity enjoyed by many people who visit Kejimkujik National Park. Use your own bicycle, or rent one at Jakes Landing. Then head for one of the park's secondary roads or the two multi-purpose trails. The trails are also used by walkers so bicyclists must cycle slowly and give pedestrians the right-of-way. Bicycling is not permitted on the other walking trails. Your co-operation in keeping our park safe for all of its users is appreciated.

Five trails are open to cyclists:

16. Jakes Landing to New Grafton Distance: 6.4 km return; 15.8 km loop

A relatively flat route that passes through a variety of softwood forests and leads outside the park to New Grafton. To create a loop, follow roads through farmlands, including 0.7 km along Route 8, to re-enter the park and complete the loop to Jakes Landing.

17. Fire Tower Road Distance: 19 km return

This more demanding route starts on a seasonally closed park road and turns onto the rougher surface of the fire tower road. You bike through young mixed woods with scattered stands of white pines and hemlocks. Just before the fire tower is a unique old growth forest of sugar maple and yellow birch.
