Details
This is a beautiful, scenic tour from Charlottetown to East Point lighthouse and return over 5 days of cycling. You will ride along the picturesque St. Peter's Bay near the unique parabolic dunes of the Greenwich PEI National Park. Enjoy the quiet beauty and tiny fishing ports of the northeast and eastern shoreline to Souris and Montague before returning to Charlottetown for a final night in a lovely bed and breakfast inn.
Alternative Distances: This tour offers alternative distances on several days. You can shorten or lengthen the day as you go.
Difficulty: The East Point tour ranges from easy to gentle and moderate hills. It has fewer hills than the Island's central north shore area. The Confederation Trail - a former rail path - runs down the middle of our planned route. We incorporate it at times and it is often available as an alternative for you. It is generally very level and easy to ride. A spur route is available to Montague.
Accommodations (6 nights): First and last nights in Charlottetown (B&B), one night at St. Peters (small inn), two nights at Souris (B&B), one night at Montague (B&B).
