Discover the Natural Wonders of Kouchibouguac National Park

Getting There

• Car

  If you are driving, start from the town of Shediac in the Acadian Peninsula. Head northeast on Route 134 toward Cap-Pele. Continue on Route 134 until you reach the intersection with Route 11. Merge onto Route 11 North. Continue on Route 11 for approximately 35 kilometers (about 22 miles) until you see the signs for Kouchibouguac National Park. Take the exit toward National 186 and follow the signs to the park entrance. The park's address is National 186, NB-117, Kouchibouguac, NB E4X 1V2.

• Public Transportation

  If you are using public transportation, check for local bus services that operate within the Acadian Peninsula region. You may need to take a bus from either Shediac or Moncton to the nearest town, which is St. Louis de Kent. From there, you will likely need to arrange for a taxi or rideshare service to take you the remaining distance to Kouchibouguac National Park, which is about 20 kilometers (12 miles) from St. Louis de Kent.

• Bicycle

  For the adventurous, biking can be a fun option if you're already in the vicinity. From St. Louis de Kent, you can take Route 117 directly towards Kouchibouguac National Park. The distance is around 20 kilometers (12 miles), and the road is relatively flat, making it a pleasant ride if the weather is nice. Ensure you have a good map or GPS, as there may be limited signage along the way.

• Taxi/Rideshare

  If you prefer a more direct and convenient option, consider using a taxi or rideshare service from your location in the Acadian Peninsula. This is particularly useful if you're traveling with luggage or in a group. The cost will vary depending on your starting point, but expect to pay around CAD 40-60 from St. Louis de Kent to the park.
