Best places: Hiking areas in Lakeside, Canada

👍👍 A picturesque trail for walkers and bikers alike. Beautiful, open waterside views give way to serene woods on a trek from Cole Harbour to Lawrenctown. See eagles, cranes, hawks and breathtaking sunsets. A welcomed gentle breeze coming off the water keeps the bugs at bay. Throw in your headphones and...

👍👍 Lovely, wide, gravel, groomed trail suitable for walks, cycling, strollers and possibly wheelchairs. Variety of scenery from boardwalks through salt marshes to oceanside cliffs to famous surfing spot Lawrencetown Beach.

👍👍 One of the best trails we’ve ever been in Nova Scotia! Better than Peggy’s Cove light house in my opinion.

👍👍 I did the first 2 loops today. The pot lake loop is definitely harder in my opinion. The blue loop was still rugged, but had some easier stretches where I was able to go at a faster pace. 4 hours walking at a good pace. Just under 16km, from the parking lot, on my recording. Beautiful throughout....

Situated high on a bluff, this 1793 defensive fortress offers educational displays & water vistas.

Built in 1817, this historic, lakefront estate offers scenic grounds with walking trails & tours.

👍👍 The best place in HRM to ride mountain bikes. Granite frickin’ wonderland.

👍👍 I absolutely loved this trail. I had no idea it existed. We hiked it in early March.. so lots of ice and you really had to be careful with your footing. It was challenging... lots of up and downs. We only did the first loop, which took us about 3 hours, but i think it could be faster during the...

👍👍 Beautiful hike, peaceful and crashing waves, can go just a short way or hike to the end. My pup loved it and I found it quite easy to navigate :) although hard to find the entrance? I was terrified of trespassing on private property but I spoke with two others and they said it’s the only way to get...

👍👍 We hiked the 9 Mile River Trails for the first time today and believe we did around 11.5 to 12 kms in total both ways, but didn't finish the whole thing. We arrived around 11:30am, and took our time to enjoy the hike. We went to the lake and back (longer route to the left) and really enjoyed the wal...

👍👍 Great short hour-ish hike. Beautiful views of area at the peak. Not a challenging trail, however that first climb is pretty steep. I recommend going in reverse, so you're more warmed up and the back side isn't as steep.

👍 Wonderful trail to run and explore!

👍 One of the best way to spend time outdoor. Worth walking around to relax away from the city.

👍👍 Dawson Brook Waterfall is located near Ellershouse, Nova Scotia. Directions can be easily found on google map. It is very close to HWY 101. In my opinion it is the closest waterfall to Halifax which is significantly high, plenty of water flowing and great forest ambience. It is easier to reach as we...

👍👍 Very fun trail, easy difficulty level. Mostly plains and rocks. You can keep going on the trail, following various paths to new adventures. I went all the way down to the coast and got to see a bit of sea life. Had a lot of fun! You can spend the entire day here walking around and not getting lost....

👍👍 Very nice trail. Easy to walk. Even there has road map. But still east to get lost. Use “all trail “ apps is recommended.I mean the mcintosh run single trail

Ocean-view rooms with fireplaces in a homey pick, plus trails, loaner bikes & bonfires on the beach.

👍👍 This is a great walking trail, with well maintained and smooth trails. Heading out of the parking lot you can do a loop down towards the lake and return to the parking lot. You can also cross the road and take the trail along the lake beside the road. If you exit the trail at the ball park, you can...

👍👍 The Castle Rock hike is a great hike with fantastic views of the shore and surrounding area. Note that the trail is primarily flat, gravelled rail trail until you get to the loop portion. This is where it gets interesting. There are three routes up, an easy combined with a medium route, and a hard r...
