New Brunswick
Includes Why Go? Fredericton...... 393 In the early 20th century, New Brunswick was a very big Upper St John deal. Millionaire businesspeople, major-league baseball River Valley...... 399 players and US presidents journeyed here to fish salmon Grand Falls...... 401 from its silver rivers and camp at rustic lodges in its deep Fundy Isles...... 407 primeval forests. But over the decades, New Brunswick slipped back into relative obscurity. Today some joke that it’s Grand Manan Island... 410 the ‘drive-through province,’ as vacationers tend to hotfoot Saint John...... 412 it to its better-known neighbors Prince Edward Island (PEI) Fundy National Park... 418 and Nova Scotia. Moncton...... 420 But the unspoiled wilderness is still here. There are rivers Miramichi...... 427 and coastal islands for kayaking, snowy mountains for ski- ing and quaint Acadian villages for exploring. So do yourself Bathurst...... 430 a favor, and don’t just drive through. PEI will still be there Campbellton...... 432 when you’re done, we promise.
