Hiking Trails Of New Brunswick

Hiking combines the physical health benefits of cardiovascular exercise with the mental health benefits of admiring the beauty of nature. New Brunswick offers a dizzying array of hiking challenges and a beauty beyond belief. In an expanded and updated 3rd edition of this popular book, veteran hikers Marianne and H.A. Eiselt take us from one end of New Brunswick to the other, along river valleys, through National Parks, around the coasts, and up and down mountains. Fully illustrated with photographs and detailed maps derived from satellite imaging, this comprehensive guide includes more than 60 trails, with descriptions of the physical details of the trail (length, difficulty, ascent, hiking time, etc.) as well as tips and sidebars describing local flora and fauna, places of interest, monuments, and landmarks. This new edition of the Eiselt's popular guide is the first in a series of new guides published by Goose Lane Editions in association with TrailsCanada. TrailsCanada is a project of Go for Green, a national organization that encourages Canadians to pursue healthy, outdoor physical activities that protect, enchance, or restore the environment.

Who would have guessed that a small province could hold so many falls? Overall, New Brunswick is home to more than 1,000 waterfalls -- some remote, and some surprisingly accessible. Spilling over an incredible range of ancient geological terrain, each of the fifty-five waterfalls photographed for this richly illustrated volume is complemented by descriptoins, directions, and background information on each site. Guitard's photographs are composed with an eye to the diversity and particular beauty and geological situation of each watercourse. A map locates each waterfall. Spanning all five regions of New Brunswick (Acadian Coastal, Appalachian Range, River Valley Scenic, Fundy Coastal, and Miramichi River), there's something for everyone -- you may even want to strap on your backpack and head out to experience them yourself.

A Hiking Guide to New Brunswick, 2nd Edition contains general directions and tips for enjoying New Brunswick hiking, plus entries on over 90 trails. These include more than 60 new maps, synoptic information about each trail and a detailed description of the trail itself. For the second edition of this popular guide, H.A. and Marianne Eiselt rehiked the trails included in the first edition. Based on their experience, they have deleted some trails, added new ones, and updated all their directions. While this new guide includes some challenging hikes and several overnight treks, it also features many short, simple walks suitable for children. A Hiking Guide to New Brunswick, 2nd Edition contains a dozen of H.A. Eiselt's evocative black-and-white photographs. Hikers in boots or in armchairs will know what awaits them when they see Marianne clambering over boulders on Mount Douglas Bald, Welsford, or a family gazing out at the ocean from an observation deck on the trail at the Irving Nature Park, Saint John.
