Hike the Coxheath Colours & Ceilidh

Join us for the annual Hike the Coxheath Colours & Ceilidh, a free community event part of the world-renowned Celtic Colours International Music Festival! This event combines the celebration of the celebration of the fall colours with Celtic music, all while hiking along the scenic Coxheath Hills trail network. Musicians and naturalists are situated along the trail, with storytellers in the cabin sharing local lore and tall tales. A traditional Cape Breton ceilidh will be held in the Coxheath Hills Community Centre afterwards, with hot apple cider, tea, biscuits, and oatcakes available for purchase. For more information about this event, please email coxheathhills@gmail.com
