On the Cabot Trail Nova Scotia

A drive on the Cabot Trail Nova Scotia takes you along the most beautiful scenic route that eastern Canada has to offer. Has. The road winds along long stretches of road directly along the steep coast. Especially in autumn, when the deciduous forests show their fall colors in the Indian Summer, a drive along the Cabot Trail is breathtaking.

Take your time. Only then can you experience the beauty of the landscape on hikes or whale watching tours. Also worth seeing are the small towns that line the coast. There you can visit art galleries or watch craftsmen. In fishing villages it is worth visiting the ports. There are beaches along the way that invite you to take a swim. On hikes you can admire the views of the sea and the coastline. It is worthwhile if you take several days to explore this piece of earth.

During her studies Monika Fuchs spent some time in North America, where she - partly together with Petar Fuchs - traveled to the USA and Canada and spent a research year in British Columbia. This intensified her thirst for knowledge, which she satisfied for 6 years as an adventure guide for Rotel Tours and then for 11 years as a tour guide for Studiosus Reisen around the world. She was constantly expanding her travel regions, but curiosity still gnawed at her: "What's beyond the horizon? What else is there to discover in this city? Which people are interesting here? What do they eat in this region?" As a freelance travel journalist (her articles have appeared in DIE ZEIT, 360° Canada, 360° USA, etc.), she is now looking for answers to these questions as a travel writer and travel blogger in many countries around the world. Petar Fuchs produces the videos on this blog as well as on YouTube. Monika Fuchs from TravelWorldOnline is among Germany's top 50 bloggers in 2021.
