This trail was a great amenity of staying at the Keltic Lodge as the access is close to the main building. It was a relatively easy hike providing some incredible views of the peninsula on both sides. The trail does have a few steep spots, but the terrain was in good condition overall, providing an enjoyable adventure.

One of the stunning beach that i have seen. Terrifying beach with outstanding scenery. I just loved the beach. Canteens are available there for foods and washrooms for taking showers. It's not that much crowded there. Amazing view with the Keltic Lodge and Middle Head Trail. Rolling rock sound over each other was incredible. For any age group people, it's a lovely place to visit, enjoy and relax. It is also nice to watch the fascinating beauty of the waves. If you are going for a outing or passing through the Cabot Trail route i will recommend you to visit Ingonish beach get relax and enjoy the beauty of the beach. I'm sure that you will really the love beach.

Great beach and we were able to swim! Waves were still rough but if you timed it right you could get out to swim. Water was very warm also. Bonus: we found some sea glass during our walk down the beach!

Had to write a review of this to clear some things up. First, yes, the drive is 6.8 km on a small (real narrow) dirt road. Not good for an RV, and low slung cars might want to think twice too. Yes, the falls are not huge, but their volume depends on water levels in the P{province at the time. We went this time a day after a rain, and there was, as you can see, a torrent coming through. The hike down can be done in TWO places. The steep stairway most go to, because it comes first just after the bridge, is steep and goes to the bottom and you're looking up at the falls, and down into the main pool. The much better viewpoint (but not for swimming from obviously), is to go on the path that keep going straight. That comes down a very gentle slope to a viewing platform that overlooks the falls from about the same level as the top (see photo). It is more distant, but really a better view. The entire walk is less than a half a km - maybe a quarter mile total! You may see moose in the small meadow on the way in and birdlife abounds. A great side trail that is really an easy in to see the Park in a way that is more than just the drive around the Trail.
