The Skerwink Trail

One of the things that brought us to Port Rexton was the Skerwink Trail overlookng a portion of shore line along Trinity Bay that is just overwhelming with beauty. Tuesday was a briliantly sunny fall day and we took advantage of the weather to hike the trail for several Kilometers to the next town over called Trinity East.

Very rugged coastal shoreline

Lots of sculpted stone cliffs

More sculpted rock


























The Fishers Loft Inn we stayed at for a few days, partly to get a break from living in the van and partly cause it was so close to the trail head, and partly cause it was a very peaceful place.

    When I read this post and the one after it I am envious! Envious and excited! If I look like you guys at that age I will be very happy! You both look great. Comfortable, healthy and happy.
    I love the pictures you posted. Port Rexton and the Inn you stayed at looks so inviting. Picture perfect! I really liked the last picture of the garden with the Bay is the background. Seeing your pictures has convinced me that I need to invest in a new camera! Thanks for the blogs!

    Hi George and Grace,
    Have been following you along and are familiar with all the great places. We call the Skerwink the "Scarywink" after our trip when the trail was right on the edge and the dogs kept wanting to peer over the edge.
    Glad the ferry trip turned out OK.
    The blogs are very informative and educational.
    We will keep reading.
    Ron and Sonya
