History
Prince Edward Island’s highest elevation is only 142 metres above sea level, and is located in Lot 67, Queens County. The community on the hill is rather oddly named, being composed of two words suggesting a place lower than its surroundings: Glen Valley.
The PEI highpoint is higher than two USA highpoints: Ebright Azimuth-Delaware and Lakewood (Britton Hill)-Florida.
