Excursion Overview
Cavendish is the hometown of Lucy Maud Montgomery, and it is near here that you will find her cousin’s farm, which inspired her most famous book. The "House of Green Gables," officially known as Green Gables Heritage Place, offers guided or self-guided tours around the site. Various exhibits and audio-visual displays provide information about the heritage of the area and the significance of the book.
There are also pleasant walking trails nearby, including the "Haunted Woods" and "Balsam Hollow," which give visitors a deeper glimpse into the author’s childhood and the locations that inspired Anne’s adventures. For fans of the book, this is a must-visit, but even if you are not familiar with the story, you may find yourself enchanted by the flame-haired character and the landscapes that defined her.
