Marconi Trail
Named after the famous Italian inventor Guglielmo Marconi and his three historic transatlantic wireless stations, the Marconi Trail runs more than 60 km from Louisbourg to Glace Bay. Along with its rich history, the route offers a memorable glimpse of Cape Breton Island's rugged coastline. Small waterside communities abound, and travelers will find classic fishing wharves, sandy beaches, canoe-friendly lakes, and exceptional vantage points for bird watching.
