Route finding:
The route will be will be marked with flagging tape on the trails and arrows on the roads.

Follow the East Coast Trail wooden signs. When in doubt turn left, but avoid viewpoints, which are signposted “VIEWPOINT” (unless you want to visit the scenic viewpoints.)

The road sections will be clearly marked.

From the final hill down to Quidi Vidi you will need to carefully follow the people directions not the bicycle directions on the ECT signs.
