Cabot Trail, Cape Breton, NS?

Question

What is the exact street/road the Cabot Trail begins at? Thank you for any help!

Also, is there a charge going to the island? I've never been there and I know that PEI has a charge coming back from the island...

Answer 1

The Cabot Trail comes off the highway 105. The trail itself is on highway 19 but its more commonly just called the cabot trail.

To get to Cape Breton you take the highway 104 in mainland nova scotia.

There is no toll (the bridge portion is only a small portion), its mostly a causeway called the Canso Causeway.

I recommend checking out the highland national park or marble mountain while you're there :)
