      I have done the cup and saucer trail many times and each time I see something new. You get a great view of the island from the top of the trail. Lots of parking and the price is right. (free)

      This is a hike that is worth the view,so bring your camera,be aware of changing weather conditions beforehand.A rain storm came up out of nowhere and made the trek down dangerous,especially with small children.

      We didn't have time to do the entire Cup & Saucer trail. It was still worth it. We got up to the ridge and the view along it made us glad we kept the brief visit on the itinerary. The trail isn't suitable for small children or those with mobility issues as there are steep sections where we more or less crawled up and slide down. And, of course, we got lost. Not quite sure how we managed that, but decided to take a different trail back and it unexpectedly ended in a swamp! Our next try got us to a vertical wall which definitely wasn't on the agenda. But, after back-tracking to the main trail, we were all set and only about 45 minutes late.

      Excellent hike, a bit tricky in some spots but overall a great place to spend a couple hours.Easy to find and a great value. Pack some water and get ready for a great walk!

      Visiting Manitoulin Island in the off-season meant jackets, no frolicking at the beach, and checking which restaurants are closed. On the plus side, I get beautiful autumn foliage, and the entire Cup and Saucer trail to myself!Besides the two steep climbs, the trails are flat and easy going. In the autumn when the ground is covered with leaves, there may be occasional hidden roots or rocks, so watch for those.There is no assistance on the to steep climbs, so it is not recommended for seniors with mobility issues and small children. Any able-bodied person would have no problems, Some rock surfaces do get a little slick when wet so take it easy if that's the case.Once you get up though, the view is absolutely gorgeous.Unlike more popular tourist destinations, there are no facilities, no guardrails or anything like that to get in your way. Since we were the only ones there, I was able to chill on the ledge and take as much time as I liked.Just a short distance from the East Lookout is the wooden ladder that leads to the adventure trail. It was raining a bit and wet, so we decided to skip it this time, but we will be back to do it next time for sure.In the fall, you would also get the bonus of autumn foliage. Lots of colours to feast your eyes.

      I really enjoyed our hike up to the lookout point of the Cup and Saucer Trail. That said, I didn't find their map/signage that accurate, which became frustrating at times.The hike is easy enough; we saw and met lots of families with latency-age children doing the hike. There were also challenging sections for those who are up for the challenge.

      The cup and saucer trail was fairly easy to locate w/ help of the GPS. The trail itself though was not as easy to navigate with confusing sign posts. For those more interested in the destination rather than the journey, look at the map and take the trail to the left leading immediately to the look out. If you're stopping for pictures, expect to spend at least 4 hrs here and that's just taking the regular trail and turning around at the end of the look out at the very tip of the map. Taking the adventure trail to complete the entire circle on the map will add at least another 2 to 2.5hrs to your hike w/o stopping for pictures. Yeah it's not that simple of a hike. Watch out for poison Ivy, it's all around. Just watch where you're stepping when trying to get pictures. Once you reach the look out though, the view is just spectacular! Plant yourself at one of the several look out spot and just have a picnic. It's truly a view to behold. I can't believe we have something like this in Ontario. The cup and saucer trail is about 50 mins drive away from the ferry. Give yourself ample time to hike this amazing terrain. Do not hike in the dark. We spotted a few crevices on our hike that could have easily been missed if it weren't for the day time light. There are a few spots where you have to climb vertically to get to the next part so be prepared to work. After you're done hiking, drive to bridal fall and go for a dip there. It's super refreshing. If you're in the tobermory area, devote at least a day for manitoulin island. It's well worth the trip!

      The views on the "white path" are spectacular. Not for the faint and weary. Can get very tricky if damp. No railings, steps or guards. Give yourselves at least 4.5 hours to do the whole trail with time for photos and snacks. Bring water and be sure to be out before dusk.

      The trails were fantastic. Beautiful scenery. The trails, however, are poorly marked. The regular trail was an adventure enough for me so, I didn't attempt the adventure trail.

      Wonderful views once you get there, the first part of the trail isn't well sign-posted even local people get lost.
