The Hot Chocolate Trail is proudly presented by the Central Coastal Tourism Partnership, a non-profit tourism association representing the central region of Prince Edward Island.

The Hot Chocolate Trail invites Islanders and visitors to sip, shop, and stay their way across PEI—from Tignish to Souris—discovering the most indulgent and imaginative hot chocolate creations crafted by local cafés, restaurants, and chocolatiers.

Running weekends leading up to Christmas, this annual celebration of cocoa and community has become a cherished Island tradition, offering the perfect blend of comfort, creativity, and connection during the holiday season. The trail supports local businesses during the quieter season and encourages people to explore PEI in a fun, cozy, and delicious way.
