It is AMAZING. Gorgeous. Wonderful. Fantastic. Breathtaking.
Seriously, you will find yourself taking a photo that could win a photography contest, turn around, and take another of what was behind you - it's equally beautiful.
My parents bought a vacay house in Cape Breton, so we've been a few times. You will always see moose on the Skyline Trail - tons of trails up there, but I tell people not to miss that one.
The people are super nice. I love Cheticamp, lots of good Acadian food (WINDY!!!) but good little museums and neat stuff to see. Horseback riding is good out there also.
I can't say enough good things about it. I'm happy to answer questions - my parents go for a month at a time 3x a year, so even if I haven't been to a particular place, THEY have!
Edit, I don't know for sure if this works or not, but facebook says I can share this album with anyone using this link:
