Welcome to Downeast Hiker

This website is dedicated to hiking, backpacking and few other things that I find useful and interesting.

While some of the information is specific to my area in eastern Canada, much is of a general nature and may be useful in your own adventures.

Please browse around and help yourself!

​The minimalist style is intended to work well with mobile devices, making it easy to navigate the pages and download trail notes and maps to a smartphone.

I've worked to make the content of this website as accurate as possible, but remember to be careful out there, and always use your own judgement.

​If you have any comments, questions or suggestions, please email me via the CONTACT tab at the top of this page.
