Love climbing up it every time just like when we were kids. Stairs can kill... so can the view. Trail is awesome come here everytime!

I love this hike down to the cliffs of the Bay of Fundy. I have I visited many times growing up - back when the steps did not exist but merely a rope down the cliff - but now the steps are sturdy and accessible for those up to the challenge! The platform gives a safe view of the rock with photo opportunity. Amazing phenomenon 200 million years in the making!

This trail is well maintained and easy to walk, however there are approximately 249 stairs to get to the viewing platform. It was well worth it, but if you have trouble with stairs, this is not the trail for you. It's about 1/2 hour one way. It's located between the ferries on Digby Neck; you might want to keep the ferry schedules in mind. It's a ten minute drive to the second ferry if you are coming from Brier Island (and about 20 minutes to the ferry going across to Brier Island.)

This was a nice diversion from our trip to Digby.You need to take the Petit passage ferry which runs on a schedule but also whenever they feel like. It's $5.50 to go to Tiverton and free to return.From the ferry it's a 3 or 4 minute drive. You park in the lot by the road and it's a 12 minute walk at most. It's an easy walk for the most part. Maybe 100-150 small stairs at the end which may pose a problem for the elderly or infirm.The rock itself is about as good as a photograph but seeing it in person and taking a selfie in front of it has value :)Worth the trip in as much as there isn't much else to do in the area. I wouldn't drive too, too far to see this, though.

The trail is good and easy to follow. Moderate effort at best in terms of terrain. Plan on about 150 steps to climb on the way back The rock is interesting but not quite as exciting as guide books suggest. Still, if you want a walk with a destination this one is pleasant.

strange how you would want to go see a "rock" but it is really quite amazing how it has stayed balanced for all these years. Be prepared for hike! Although there are walkways and stairs, it is still a journey... and it's on the way to the best whale watching ever

The hike isn't too long (~1 km or so, ~2-2.5 km round-trip) and is relatively easy, but there are about 230 stairs in there. Along the path there are handy informational signs about the plants along the trail. The balancing rock itself is pretty neat to see, and the view from the landing is lovely. Give yourself about an hour. This is a great place to visit either before or after a whale watching excursion.

We weren't sure what to expect of the balancing rock. Due to heavy rain we were even seriously considering not to go. Nevertheless, it was worth it. In the sunny weather it must be an even more wonderful experience...

After our whale watching excursion was canceled due to weather, we were looking for something else to do. We were told of a giant rock balancing on a cliff face. Um, are you serious? This is what people in Canada consider cool? OK. Let's give it a try! I can't believe I am saying this, but it was a great excursion. A moderate hike (decent amount of stairs, not terribly long, some balancing on boards placed in large puddles), but the reward at the end is a very impressive, gigantic rock precariously perched backed by large, dramatic cliffs out over the water. It's a nice payoff to the modest hike and makes for some great pictures!

If I had known how long and difficult this hike was I might never have completed it. By the time I hit the stairs leading to the rock I was committed so I kept going. Once you get there the cliffs and ocean views are excellent, the amazing rock is wonderful. The sound of the waves crashing on the rocks was beautiful. But the last part of this hike is not for the faint of heart. The stairs are well built but steep, it took me about 2 hours to do the round trip hike when I was expecting to do it in 1 hour.
