The road to Robinsons Island in P.E.I. has been closed since post-tropical storm Fiona swept through the park, causing major damage, and it’s not going to reopen
Some North Shore residents are growing increasingly concerned about the risk of fire posed by trees downed by post-tropical storm Fiona, including those in Prince Edward Island National Park.
The Prince Edward Island National Park will reopen to visitors for the 2023 season, but people will notice dramatic changes to the shoreline and infrastructure because of damage from post-tropical storm Fiona.
Three new trails looping around the P.E.I. National Park's Cavendish Campground will be available on weekends starting this Sunday until March 20 as part of a pilot project.

Parks Canada and Abegweit First Nation are teaming up to offer wedding and event services at P.E.I. National Park and the Island s historic sites.
Tara McNally MacPhee, the visitor experience manager for P.E.I. National Park, said demand has increased in the past few years for weddings and events at Parks Canada sites on the Island. We want to connect [people] to P.E.I. National Park and have that lifelong connection, said McNally MacPhee. However, the demand has grown so much that it got to a point where we really didn t have a whole lot of resources left to manage it effectively.
