A warm autumn day, sunshine, perfect morning light and a bald eagle overhead…
We parked our car in the parking lot near the Provincial Park gate and set out for the trail head. I had hiked the Redhead Look-off Trail once in February. While a light dusting of snow presented a magical winter landscape I loved the fall landscape equally well. A few mushrooms, edible and non-edible, lined the path. We found the trail to be clear and of decent width for hiking. The terrain falls into the category of “easy” or Level 1.
The light was spectacular as we arrived at our destination and when the bald eagle took flight we knew it would be a great day!
The Redhead Trail is straight in and out. We returned to the trail marker map and decided to hike out through the provincial campground along the Estuary Trail.
Admittedly, an easy hike but so worth it! I loved the diversity in landscape, the difference in the woodland trails and vistas of the Minas Basin mudflats and salt marsh! A perfect few hours of hiking on a fabulous fall day!
Happy Saturday, Anna
