Hike to the summit of Sugarloaf Park’s 305-m (1,000-ft.) mountain and see the city of Campbellton spread out below. The junction of Chaleur Bay and the Restigouche River creates a waterscape of exceptional beauty, and the rolling hills of the Gaspé Peninsula in Quebec on the other side of the water will have you in awe. 

This park contains more than 25 km (16 mi.) of hiking and biking trails, with the 4-km (2.5-mi.) The Terry Fox Trail winds around the base of the mountain.
