Kejimkujik National Park is a treasured natural resource comprised of woodland forests, rivers, and an extensive network of canoe and hiking trails. Designated in 2010 as a "Dark Sky Preserve" Keji is one of the few places in Nova Scotia where visitors may experience the night sky in total darkness. The many lakes and rivers that wind through Keji were once used as a bay to ocean trail by the Mi'kmaq people, who would follow them by canoe from the Bay of Fundy to the Atlantic Ocean. The term, "Kejimkujik" came from the Mi'kmaq language and one definition has Keji referring to the "sore muscles" experienced by the Mi'kmaq after a day of paddling and portaging in the region.Kejimkujik National Park is a treasured natural resource comprised of woodland forests, rivers, and an extensive network of canoe and hiking trails.
