This path from Cappahayden to Chance Cove Provincial Park is an undeveloped section of the ECT. Expect a variety of hiking conditions, from roadway, rough trail and moose path to bush-wacking, trackless bog and river crossings with knee or waist-deeo water. Good hiking boots and tough, long pants are mandatory. Bring lots of food, drink and fly-dope and enjoy the orchids!
