The PlaidPath Travel Philosophy

Sustainable Tourism Practices

We are deeply committed to sustainable tourism practices that preserve the natural beauty of the Trans Canada Trail and benefit the communities we visit.

From employing local guides and using locally-sourced products to staying in community-run accommodations and dining at local restaurants, every aspect of our tours is designed to contribute directly to the local economy. Additionally, a portion of our proceeds goes to local non-profits and charities, further amplifying the positive impact of your adventure. By choosing our tours, you’re not only experiencing the beauty of the trail but also empowering and uplifting the communities along the way.
