Lighthouse Trail
- 1.8 km
- 1 hour
Cape Jourimain's historic lighthouse awaits you at the far end of this loop trail. You'll follow the shoreline through fields of bayberry, wild roses, asters and goldenrods and into young forests of spruce, poplar and maple. Look for the shrubs loaded with serviceberries, as there are sure to be robins and waxwings feeding there. As you admire the lighthouse, you can also marvel at the construction and flying skills of the many cliff swallows that build their mud nests on the tower. The return trip will take you through mossy forests along the historic road that was used to access the lighthouse as far back as 1870.
