The final three kilometers of the Mdaabii loop was a much more moderate walk through the woods. At the junction we with the inland coastal trail, we turned east for a two kilometer moss walk as Katharina wanted to check out the famous suspension bridge over the White River. The view down into the White River gorge is quite dramatic and we spent some time exploring the area.

Hike out to the White River is a very pretty walk through the forest

The return was a straight forward walk along the coastal trail which varied between easy travel and annoying boot sucking mud as we traversed back across the Hattie Cove swamp detour. We stopped for lunch on the pretty beach at Playter Harbour, and then hiked the remaining distance under a light rainfall which stoopped as we reached the trailhead. A second lunch was consumed on the back porch of the closed visitor center building before we loaded back into the car for the two day drive back to Ottawa.
