Field notes August 2026

Our quick-visit notes for Nackawic, New Brunswick, where the World's Largest Axe makes an easy roadside photo op with a garden stroll.

Nackawic is a small riverside town best known for the World's Largest Axe, planted right on its waterfront.

There wasn't much happening on our visit, but the gardens around the axe were pleasant to walk through and the axe itself was a good photo op.

World's Largest AxeThe giant axe is an easy, quick photo op right off the road.
Gardens to strollThe waterfront gardens gave Tilly a pleasant place to walk.
A short stopThere wasn't much else open on our visit; plan it as a quick break.
