Fundy National Park Of Canada

Wonderful campground. Spacious sites, with electric, water and dumping on the spot. Access to coastal trail, and a jewel of a golf course steps away. Great views over the bay from picnic area. The campground is very near the charming fishing town of Alma, where you can see the famously high tides lifting fishing boats out of the mud.

A trip to the Bay of Fundy wouldn’t be worth it if you didn’t camp at Fundy National Park. Visit the village of Alma and pick up some clams and lobster and relax at your campsite before heading out to Hopewell Rocks and walk around these amazing structures eroded by the sea. Check out the tide timetable. Great campground.

Beautiful park. Trails a maintained very well. We had some wonderful hikes. Went to Hopewell Rocks at high and low tide. Super fun!

This is a place where you want to visit and spend lots of time enjoying the nature at its best. For us it was a short and quick tour due to time constraints. We did the Dickson fall hike with kids and enjoyed the hike. Information shared enroute about the surrounding made this small hike more memorable. Will be planning for a longer trip to explore more.

Absolutely breathtaking place. Tons of stuff to do, and so little time. I'm thankful we live just an hour from this provincial park. We are very excited to take a few more trips here to really take in the natural beauty that is the Bay of Fundy. Our first stop was the Hopewell Rocks. Entry was I believe $39 for a family pass which included 2 adults and a few kids. Individual adult passes were $9. We opted to walk down to the ocean floor as that was the whole reason for going here... To enjoy the views and nature. If you choose to take the shuttle it is $2 a person and takes you right to the staircase. There are 100+ steps down and back up of course. Not a big deal but consider this if you're not 100% mobile. Prices of drinks inside the shop are about $3.00 for a bottled pop. I'm unsure about food... I'm sure it follows that trend as well. If you're going here for a visit but dislike crowds, consider going during the week while kids are in school. The playground was a good reward for the kids once they climbed all the steps and back to the top. There are various games for them to play. I love the addition of dog bowls filled with water for your furry friends. If you get muddy while walking around the ocean floor -- don't fret, you can rinse off your feet and shoes after climbing back up the stairs. We stopped at the salt water pool for an afternoon swim. The pool was heated and had a shallow end as well as a deep end over 11 feet deep. Diving board for the kids and lifejackets available if need be. The lifeguards didn't seem very pushy so it was easy to enjoy our time there.

We did the Lavarty-Moosehorn trail loop at the Fundy National Park. The fall colours were great and the rivers were energetic with fast flowing water into the Bay of Fundy. We did get lost many times throughout the trail though, better signage is needed.

Well worth the extra few hours of driving to get here. Loved going down to Point Wolfe and seeing the covered bridge. The visitors center is also very clean and there are plenty of scenic pull-offs and short trails along the main road.

Amazing hikes and trails, as well as appropriate facilities in the campgrounds. The tides are high and beach exploration at low tide is a must at point Wolfe. Big spruce trees and right beside Alma, a cute little tourist area. The appeal is the undeveloped, low population factor.

Very cool national park. Very good ranger programs, which are super kid friendly. Tons of hikes and interesting things to look at. Headquarters campsite is well maintained and close to Alma. Not the most breathtaking Canadian national park but definitely worth a visit.

We explored a number of trails and water falls, incredible. Was not to busy and we enjoyed a full day exploring.

This place is a JEWEL. A fantastic display of biodiversity packed into fairly small package. You can experience waterfalls, the highest tides in the world, beaches, hiking, jagged cliffs, rivers, and on and on. Trail systems are well mapped and come in varying distance and difficulty so there is something for everyone. This is kid friendly too. There is an outdoor heated salt water pool that is fantastic. Beaches and lakes to play and swim in. A central located park is also very well done. This is one of my favourite places in the world - period.

Last week, we flew from California to Rhode Island and borrowed a car and made the long drive up to Fundy National Park in New Brunswick. I was jet-lagged, tired, and it was rainy. I knew only that the nearby town Alma is known for its extreme tides. As mosquitos descended upon us, I fully expected to have a crappy time. This was not the case! Fundy is AWESOME. Between the incredible staff, the non-stop educational programs for all ages (we indulged in a fun sing-a-long campfire where hot chocolate was served, a moonlit guided kayak tour, numerous hikes and beach walks, etc) and the well-maintained trails, this is one of the most incredible parks I've ever visited. It has outshined every park I've been to in the US. It's tucked away in true wilderness, the kind of which I've never seen before, not even in Alaska. Miles and miles of open space. It was very green, and the air smelled sweet. And every sign was bilingual, which is exciting for a francophile like me! But it got even more exciting for me: In the national park gift shop, they had two books I illustrated!! I could not believe having traveled all that way and then seeing my own work in the gift shop, that was the coolest!! I have nothing but wonderful things to say about Fundy's lush waterfalls, excitable bats, cartoonish bullfrogs, abundant wildflowers, fresh air, approachable and friendly interpreters, educational programs, wonderful trails, views and serenity. I'm glad we made the trip! Thank you to all the interpreters of Fundy, especially Pat, for making our trip extraordinary!

My boyfriend and I spent the night at the Wolfe point campground in the park. There is nothing like the peace, quiet, and majesty of this place. The campground was peaceful, private, and the showers were clean. It was so nice to wake up early and watch all the animals. After a full nights rest we went to Wolfe point beach. The hike was gorgeous and the beach even more breathtaking. There is so much to explore here. Everyone working at the park was friendly and helpful. I would definitely recommend this park if you like nature, you will love this place.

Dark sky, millions of stars, moon rising. We actually never planned on going to the Fundy National Park, but after 10 hours in the car finally entering Fundy National Park. After another hour drive, empty road we pulled over the next camping ground to be found- Chignecto. The very bored, but friendly and smiling security guy directed us to the next available camping spot on the map. Too tired and too dark to put up the tent, we slept in the car. The very next morning studying the info material handed over by the nice security guy, we decided to move to another camping ground in park, close to the small town Alma and many hiking starting points- Headquarters. It´s more specious and not very private, but from here we were able to do a lot of hiking and even leaving the car and just walk down to Alma. OUR TIP: During a clear night, drive up the hwy 114 (from Alma) and stop at the look-out, stop the engine and enjoy the dark sky and the endless Milky Way!!

We did the Dickson Falls Trail in Fundy National Park. It was of intermediate difficulty (lots of stairs), but not really requiring hiking boots. Dickson Falls is quite lovely and the scenic stops along the drive through the park are equally breathtaking. Just a lovely place to be.

First of all, this is coming from two points of view. First as a traveler, second as a person with disabilities... So from the travelers point of view... AMAZING.... But one heads up, take heed the weather conditions. The day I came here for a two day retreat, it was fog and more fog and more fog... The following day after an evening rain storm, the fog lifted and what an AMAZING PLACE... I camped here for two days. The staff was great, they even had the jumper cables I needed to jump start my car. (I forgot to charge it after charging my computer). I had great camping neighbours as well. The trails were well maintained. Plenty of parking at each trail head. I can only say that I wish that at the end of each trail head (beach) that there was a guide to talk about the area. The staff at the camp grounds and the information center was a great help. WIll say their distance to driving time is a bit off... (Canadain drivers are nutz) so add time to get somewhere. This is dog friendly as well... Disability... well for someone with a walking issue, some places are there is great access, others... lets just say I'm glad I brought drugs! Some of the longer trails, like Point Wolfe, are great, stunning and well worth the pain. The park does go the distance in making everything accessable as they can to all. There are able lookout points, for those that can't walk far or wheelchair accessable. The trails are well marked and have a rating to them. Of cource easy to John Q is difficult to Joe P. I was able to suck up the easier trails and saw some great natural wonders... My campsite was easily accessible to bathrooms and showers. Roads were well maintained for those in chairs. This place goes the distance to make things accessable to all... (of course some of the trails are limited and not wheelchair accessable) If you haven't been here, it is worth the trip from the northern Maine area... It is worth the trip regardless of where you are going.... oh and if you are not into camping, they have a motel and chalets for rent as well

Beautiful! A must see and hike. We loved the waterfall hike, covered bridge, and the park rangers were friendly and helpful.

Two adults stayed two weeks in a 30' camper at the Chignecto campground in the park in August 2019. The Campground: Pros: Many of the campsites are spacious, and even though there are over two hundred campsites the campground, around site 35, was relatively quiet and clean. There is a washer and dryer in several of the bath houses. Although pretty pricey....six loonies total to wash and dry one load. Well staffed, trash taken care of every day. Bike paths circle the campground and there are, at least, two playgrounds. Fundy Nat'l Park: Pros: Many hikes of all levels: easy, moderate, strenuous. The waterfalls are awesome...Dickinson Falls, right off Point Wolf Rd., was an easy walk and very beautiful. Also check out Laverty Falls and Third Vault Falls, more if a hike back in the woods. There are a system of bike trails across 114 from the campground, but need a mountain bike since the trails, for the most part, are loose gravel. Unfortunately Rt 114 does not have shoulders to accommodate bikes. Only the extremely hardy and experienced bikers will risk it! Three small beaches in the park, and Alma beach outside the park. Really cool to walk around during low tide. There is also a golf course and other features we did not check out on this trip. Unlike Maine parks, Fundy has an abundant of trash receptacles, so virtually no litter! Beautiful! Loved that there are many bright, colorful flower gardens around the where the information kiosk is located. Cons:Come to Fundy Park for the ocean and the tides, not for the lakes. There are two small lakes. Bennett Lake has canoe/kayak rentals. We rented a tandem kayak but the lake was really too small to get in a good paddle. We went for a dip at the swim front but there was soooo much goose poop I would not bother to go back there. Point Wolf lake is even smaller. Other things to note: Alma only has one small store, but it is so expensive. We went to Sussex for our shopping, about 40 minutes from the campground (due primarily to poor road conditions on Rt 114 outside of the park). We liked the Atlantic Superstore for food shopping. Also larger city centers to the north and south but we did not bother to go that far. Many seafood restaurants in Alma! Hopewell Rocks, outside the park, is an incredible sight at low tide....so many photo ops. We would definitely return to Fundy National Park!!

So much to do here; can't get enough of it. Biking, kayaking, camping, hiking, swimming, playgrounds, interpretive programs, golf, tennis, picnics, Rising Tide Music Festival and other live music shows, etc, etc, etc... Looking forward to another awesome summer here. Going to miss Dan...

Amazing hikes! Tonnes of difficult isolated trails. We did the coastal trail which had a lot of altitude. The views were insane! The trails were well marked. The climate changes along the way were really unique to this area. That said, wear layers of clothing. Cool ocean breeze is followed by hot sun, then a shrouding of mist. Pretty amazing. The bay is on full display on this hike.
