Skyline Trailhead in Cape Breton Highlands NP opens onto dramatic coastal cliffs and a raised boardwalk with sweeping views of the Gulf of St. Lawrence and chance encounters with moose. Shoot expansive panoramas, layered coastal fog, and fall colours; golden hour and blue hour deliver the best light. Trail is well-marked but can be steep; pay park entry fee, use the small parking lot, and expect limited cell service. Weekdays and shoulder seasons (late spring, fall) reduce crowds and midges.
