This
park
is
about
130
years
old.
Itโs
a
beautiful
well
maintained
urban
woodland
park
spans
across
3000
acres.
It
has
many
boardwalks.
These
boardwalks
make
waterfalls
Waddell
and
Howe
are
easily
accessible
and
provide
an
exciting
backdrop
for
photos
of
family
and
friends.
It
has
washrooms
but
this
park
is
not
very
wheelchair
friendly.
Very
tall
pine
trees
and
lots
of
squirrels
and
birds.
It
has
a
good
parking
lot
and
many
entrances.
If
you
are
looking
for
some
workout,
you
might
wanna
check
out
Jacob's
ladder(147
steps)
and
some
pull
up
bars
at
the
top.
All
steps
aren't
the
same
size.
It
is
open
all
year,
but
late
spring
and
early
summer
would
be
ideal
time
to
visit
this
park,
as
water
levels
would
be
at
its
highest.
It
is
about
a
one
and
half
hour
drive
from
downtown
Halifax.
It's
a
beautiful
and
dynamic
urban
park.
I
love
it
for
its
natural
features,
including
a
dramatic
steep-sided
gorge,
a
winding
river,
cascading
waterfalls,
and
a
stately
old-growth
Eastern
Hemlock
forest.
This
place
offers
endless
recreational,
cultural
and
leisure
opportunities.
These
include
hiking,
photography,
birdwatching,
day
picnics,
family
gatherings,
snowshoeing,
cross-country
skiing,
swimming,
baseball,
cultural
events,
live
music,
tennis,
cycling
and
more.
If
you
are
in
Nova
Scotia,
and
if
you
are
a
nature
lover,
I
highly
recommend
going
there.
