Everything about Prince Edward Island National Park totally explained
Prince Edward Island National Park is a
Canadian National Park located on
Prince Edward Island. Situated along the island's north shore, fronting the
Gulf of St. Lawrence, the park measures approximately 60 km in length and ranges from several hundred metres to several kilometres in width. Established in
1937, the park's mandate includes the protection of many broad sand beaches, sand dunes and both freshwater wetlands and saltmarshes. The park's protected beaches provide nesting habitat for the endangered
Piping Plover; the park has been designated a Canadian
Important Bird Area.
An extension was added to the park in
1998 when an extensive sand dune system in
Greenwich was transferred from the provincial government to Parks Canada. The Prince Edward Island National Park also includes
Green Gables, which was the childhood inspiration for the
Anne of Green Gables novels by author
Lucy Maud Montgomery, as well as
Dalvay-by-the-sea, a Victorian era mansion currently operated as an inn.
In recent years, environmental and conservation groups have identified Prince Edward Island National Park as being the most endangered in the national park system, based on human impact. The park also experiences severe coastal erosion as a result of winter storms and its vulnerable shoreline.
