With trails in Kouchibouguac National Park and almost every coastal community in the county finding a trail to explore for the day or the afternoon is easy. Using Kent county's trails you can explore not just the natural beauty of the region but also its history and culture. The trails link National and Provincial icons such as the Bouctouche Bay Eco-tourism Site, Kouchibouguac National Park, and the Pays de la Sagouine.
