Roma at Three Rivers

Difficulty Level
Moderate

Length
3.5 km

Here’s what it says on a plaque erected on the Roma site in 1936 (and still visible on the property).

“Roma at Three Rivers”. “Here, in 1732, Jean Pierre Roma founded a base for control of the Gulf fisheries, and for trade with France, Quebec and the West Indies. His establishment was destroyed after the fall of Louisbourg in 1745.”

Step back in time and experience Jean Pierre Roma’s 1730s trading post. Authentic experiences are provided for all age groups, and/or take time to enjoy a delicious home-cooked meal and refreshments. Maybe a picnic lunch is your preference when you visit our secluded, quiet, picturesque spot tucked away in this historic PEI location.

Family friendly programs: Learn about Jean Pierre Roma, his Trading Post and his Great Escape, 1732-1745; stroll Roma’s 3.5 km 0f trails; enjoy Roma’s French Heritage Gardens; enjoy some fiddle tunes and try a dance with Roma’s talented fiddler; learn about cod fishing, Roma’s gold; special orienteering activity; family archeological digs.

Roma’s Restaurant & Stone Oven: Heritage Lunch served in the Pavilion or on the patio (12-1:30 pm), with a picnic lunch available. Our specialty is bread, baked in Roma’s outdoor oven, daily. New this year wood-fired oven pizza (Friday only)!

Wide open spaces, social distancing, health protocols observed.

Open daily, 10 am-5 pm. Reservations required for Heritage Lunch, picnic lunches and pizza (902-838-3413) preferably the day before your planned visit.
