Kejimkujik National Park Seaside — Attraction in Port Joli

There are two trails . One has been closed for two years . The claim Is it needs work but the work is minor and during a pandemic the value of outside spaces should ensure these spaces are opened . What it needs is to have the long grasses on the path cleared . The other trail was not cleared until mid August . Plus the plover beach is still closed .

The only disappointing thing is the road to get to the park. The signage was poor, but the pavement/dirt road was in horrendous condition. Compared to the roads at the inland Keji site or Highlands National Park, it's quite appalling. They alone are a -2 stars for me. I wouldn't take a car that I liked if I were...
