The Cape Breton Highlands National Park is launching a reservation system for the Skyline Trail in late June, aimed at reducing overcrowding and protecting ecosystems. With over 50,000 visitors annually, the trail has faced congestion issues, prompting local tourism to limit promotions. Parks Canada plans to share more details on the system by early 2026, emphasizing the need for careful management. Advocates support the initiative to preserve the trail’s natural beauty for future generations.
