The Homestead Trail is one of the longest trails in Prince Edward Island National Park. The long loop is 10 km and the short loop is 6 km. Both segments have spectacular views of New London Bay and sand dunes on the north side of the Bay. The trail circles around a series of farm fields that included a farm homestead in years gone by. In addition to the bay view and sand dunes there are several stream crossings and a couple of sturdy Parks Canada bridges. The trail surface is crushed gravel and the trail is wide enough for two people to walk side by side. The trail is well signed and well maintained (summer and fall only).
