Kejimkujik National Park

Kejimkujik National Park is well worth a visit if you are visiting the area and have the time. You can camp, bike, hike, and kayak within the park.

Mill Falls

Our first hike after visiting the Visitor Center was Mill Falls. This was a very easy, short hike to a rather impressive waterfall. The trailhead was right behind the Visitor Center.

I love how the forest has no real understory. It creates an open, airy feel.
Some nice photos for turning into paintings later!

Jake’s Landing to Kedge Beach

Next, we drove over to Jake’s Landing to see whether we might like to kayak in the river or bike the trail. There is an outfitters at Jake’s Landing where you can rent kayaks and boats.

Ultimately, we decided not to kayak because we had forgotten to bring our water shoes. And we decided not to bike because the trail was narrow, with roots and rocks.

We took a hike over to Kedge Beach instead.

Looking at Jake’s Landing from the other side of the river.
The trail. I love those ferns!
This area right above Kedge Beach is called the Oasis. I have no idea how you use the toilet when you camp in one of these. It looks like you would have to climb down the ladder and walk down the hill to the bathroom, which would be no fun in the dark!

Merrymakedge Beach

Next, we drove over to check out Merrymakedge Beach. (I have no idea how to pronounce that ridiculous name.)

I talked Greg into getting ice cream at the Lakeview Cafe and Eatery. Chocolate soft serve with caramel sauce on top. Yum!

Then we headed back to Digby.
