Select this trail for coastal views. The trail begins near the parking area and follows along the shore to the northern end of Pyche Cove providing several enchanting vistas of Mushaboom Harbour and its many islands along the way. The beach and sand dunes at Pyche Cove were formed by sand deposits from the erosion of glacial till and bedrock. The trail links with the Bull Beach Trail at Bob Bluff.

 Wet in places but passable! Great to see so much brush has been cut back since early summer! It was quite grown up so we appreciated the work put in!
