Tour 32 Marble Mountain - Skye Valley

Distance: 110 km (67 miles)

Starting Point: Port Hastings; Mabou; Whycocomagh

Region: Cape Breton

Terrain: Flat to slightly rolling

Meandering through the heart of Cape Breton, this tour connects the most popular touring areas on the Island. The Cabot Trail, Creignish Hills (Ceilidh Trail), Mira River, and historic Louisbourg areas connect with mainland Nova Scotia by way of this route. The tour runs from Port Hawkesbury, around the west side of Lake Bras' d'Or, meets the start of the Cabot Trail, and then goes to the West Coast by way of Lake Ainslie. By doing part of this tour, you can tailor any trip of island. Connecting with other Cape Breton Island tours of the Nova Scotia Bicycle Book, you can make a near perfect tour, without any long stretches of major roads.
