Alpine Ridge Estates provides access to all of Cape Breton's amazing amenities.

In the fall, when the leaves change color and the hillsides transform into a dazzling display of red, orange, crimson, and gold you can drive the world-renowned Cabot Trail, which was ranked in MSN Travel’s 10 Most Underrated Attractions and Zoomer’s 7 Great Canadian Road Trips.

Although the Cabot Trail is beautiful any time of year, the scenery in the fall is particularly spectacular! This will also give you the opportunity to explore the charming east coast communities surrounding you while stopping for fresh lobster, crab, oysters, mussels, clams, scallops, and mackerel at local restaurants. 

Welcoming locals are sure to make you feel right at home and will likely share their favorite stops along the Trail with you.
