Hiking &
Walking Trails - Channel - Port aux Basques
|
| Two historically prosperous communities
amalgamated to create Channel-Port aux Basques in 1945. The French,
Portuguese and Basques fished from this ice-free port as early as the
1500's. The Reid Company recognized an ideal station for its railway and
steamer services linking the island to "Upper Canada" and
initiated both in 1898. |
