from RV Canucks - RV Life, One Weekend at a Time! · host RV Canucks
In this episode, we continue our East Coast RV trip with Nova Scotia — starting with the Fortress of Louisbourg, then on to Mira River Provincial Park, The Ovens, and Lunenburg. We share what worked, what we’d skip on a short trip, and the planning lessons that can help other weekend-warrior RVers make the most of their own Nova Scotia adventure.We also talk about the Canada Strong Pass, which offers free admission to national historic sites, national parks, and national marine conservation areas administered by Parks Canada from June 19 to September 7, 2026.Links mentioned in the episodeCanada Strong Pass: https://www.canada.ca/en/canadian-heritage/campaigns/canada-pass/about.html The Ovens Natural Park: https://www.ovenspark.com/Mira River Provincial Park: https://novascotia.com/listing/mira-river-provincial-park/Northumberland Ferries: https://www.ferries.ca/ns-pei-ferryLunenburg UNESCO World Heritage Site: https://parks.canada.ca/culture/spm-whs/sites-canada/sec02kBluenose II: https://bluenose.novascotia.ca/Sea Glass BeachSea glass beach map link: https://maps.app.goo.gl/kjrQpyvtdYJAqpUH6 Places and notes from this tripFortress of Louisbourg: great RV parking, but allow extra time because the roads are windy and narrow and the Fortress can start closing earlier than expected.Mira River Provincial Park: a good overnight stop in Cape Breton, with waterfront camping and easy access to Sydney and nearby attractions.The Ovens: a scenic coastal stop with campsites, hot showers, and access to the famous sea cave trail.Lunenburg: a UNESCO World Heritage Site with a strong maritime history, colorful waterfront streets, and the iconic Bluenose II.Lunenburg RV Park: https://maps.app.goo.gl/e6HL5snu4WAktTvc8Support the showGet $10 off Roadtrippers Premium, just use code RVCanucks21 at Checkout!Like what you hear?
