Everything you need to know, to thru hike the ~4,800 mile Eastern Continental Trail from Key West Florida to Quebec Canada. Connecting the Overseas Heritage Trail, Florida Trail, Alabama Hiking Trail, Coosa Trail, Pinhoti Trail, Benton Mackaye Trail, Appalachian Trail, New Brunswick Trail, and International Appalachian Trail. You read that right! This is one long route connecting all of those things, with some roads inbetween. I'm happy to answer any further questions.

Being from Quebec originally this has really inspired me to look into the Quebec portion of this trail. Thanks for the video, Jupe!

The "Parc de la Gaspésie" in Quebec has some of the most epic landscapes I've seen, and if you're well equiped for real winter expeditions it's even better. Great video buddy!

A couple of sections in Quebec (mount Albert & Jacques-Cartier) close on Sept 30th for Caribou protection. You could be asked for your passport in Gaspésie park. You might run into hunters in autumn there as well (outside the park).

I hiked the AT and the Québec section of the IAT in 2017 and I did not found Québec to be any way harder than New Hampshire or Maine. It was also my favorite section but I'm from that province so I like my hiking backyard (you still got to see some unique landscapes with St-Lawrence river). You can also pay to have a box sent to you in Réserve faunique de Matane to help with the long wilderness stretch (about 100miles without crossing a paved road).

Hey from I am from Newfoundland. I have been looking into hiking our section of the At. There are some completely wilderness sections and it isn't very well marked, soI have been trying to make some contacts to get gps files and such.

Wow thank you for this great video ❤ I am from Quebec and a guy from around here (Joan Roch) is starting the ECT today, he will attempt to run it. He thanked you Jupiter in a podcast for the helpful tips you shared with him! 😊
