Confederation Bridge

Extending more than 7.5 miles between Prince Edward Island and New Brunswick, this is the longest bridge in the world that spans over ice-covered waters.

Reviewed By JenniferandAlan - Easton, United States

The Confederation Bridge linking New Brunswick and Prince Edward Island opened in May 1997. The bridge is 8 miles long and is the longest bridge over ice covered waters. Its supports can deflect icebergs! The bridge is curved to keep you alert while driving across. It replaced the ferry service that linked the two provinces and greatly reduced crossing time--only 10 to 15 minutes. You can still have the ferry experience by using the ferry connecting PEI with Nova Scotia. You only pay toll one way--leaving PEI. Even if you decide not to cross, do stop and see this engineering marvel.

Hartland Covered Bridge

Reviewed By Lesterbeach - Winnipeg, Canada

About 5 minutes off the #2 Hwy this is definitely worth the stop. The bridge was built in 1921. Bridges with wooden trusses were covered until steel was used for the trusses. This is the longest covered bridge in the world. There is a gift store at the east side and a parking lot at the west side. A pedestrian walkway is attached to the bridge. Cars can only go in one direction at a time so stop and wait your turn.

This is one of the most dramatic visuals of the Bay of Fundy tides. Boats sitting in the mud 15 below the dock at low tide and riding high dockside at high tide. Don’t miss it. See our trip in my blog ... just click my picture and select the address below it.
