We visited Wolfville for the first time & wanted to know if the Waterfront park closed at 5 pm or…read moredusk. The staffed center closes at 5 but you can visit the park in the evening. We visited July 8th and walked the trail & the dyke path. Definitely recommend insect repellent! I think saying you get cliff views from this park is taking liberties unless you have superior distance vision but it was a nice place to visit end of day after dinner. **ALSO: we got to the parking lot via GASPEREAU which is not how online driving directions app routed us!

This park is located near the city Center of Wolfville. It has great views of Blomidon and there…read moreare several plaques nearby to read about local flora and fauna. This is said to be the world's smallest harbour. Close by is a trail for walking made of former railway tracks. A great spot for nature lovers, those who like to relax for a picnic and so on. Plenty of quaint shops around the corner and more than enough free parking.

While in Nova Scotia last month, hubs and I made the driver out to Cape Split Provincial Park after…read morevisiting the Lobster Pound for lunch at Hall's Harbour. While we didn't have on our hiking boots on or appropriate clothing for a 3 hour hike in 0 degree weather, we still thoroughly enjoyed the view and a brief walk. The full hike is about 14 km. And as this is an official Provincial Park, there is a pretty large parking lot with ample room for whatever vehicle and toys you have in tow. Cape Split is definitely going on my Nova Scotia bucket list to hike when we come back!

I really enjoyed my hike to Cape Split this past weekend. I should have paid closer attention to…read morethe signage and noticed how long it was going to take (total: 14km). I wore sneakers and active wear clothing, so at least I planned that part right. You're most likely going to get your shoes dirty and or wet, the beginning of the trail is pretty muddy and it had rained the night before so there was a small river running over path for a good distance. After a few kms the path gets less ATV-ish and nicer, still tons of roots though. I would suggest packing a lunch or snack for when you reach the end. The best part was sitting on the cliff, enjoying the view and eating something. I took my shih tzu and he was able to walk/run the whole thing. He was a mess when we finished, because he loved the mud holes, and was so tired he didn't care about walking straight through them. Don't forget snacks for the dog! That slipped my mind, but luckily someone at the look off point had a big bag of them. Pack lots of water, wear comfortable sneakers and you will be fine. We came across lots of dogs, kids and people of all ages. The view is beautiful, and worth every step!

100% worth the drive to come for the view EVEN on a super cold day!…read more There are a few benches to sit at and enjoy a sunrise or sunset! Maybe even a picnic on a warm day. https://parks.novascotia.ca/content/blomidon-lookoff

A little pull off spot on the side of the road, it host fantastic views of the valley below. I gave…read morethis spot 5 stars because of its instant payoff, you pull off the road with lots of space to park, get out of your car and bam! You have arrived. Point and click away. There are bathrooms here as well, if you're brave enough and a little souvenir/ice cream/café across the street that I guess also doubles as a camp ground office (there is a camp ground across the street as well). We stopped to enjoy the view here on the way to Cape Split, a great stopping spot for views, leg stretching and ice cream!

A number of "rest stations" to enjoy the sounds of the different species of birds flying around.

An amazing stay. This camp ground is full of many things to do and near by places to explore…read more We camped out for 2 nights. The price is extremely reasonable. It was around $26 a night. This includes Parking for one. To add another car in (to camp on your site is $8). It's worth it. Camp fires are a must so make sure you pick up your firewood from the office. Bundles are very well priced at $5 each. Well with it as they are hefty bundles. We camped at site 31 it was the best because it was shaded and a little more private. I would recommend site 31, 32, and 33. They have fire pits, a table, and lots of space to have 2 or 3 large tents. The hike is with it. It's not very difficult but it's got some great views. It took us about 1 hour 45 minutes. We walked slow the way up and fast the way back. The campground was not loud at all. Because of the trees it gave a little more privacy and didn't carry sound from site to site. Overall highly recommended :)

We had our first outing to Halimac Axe Throwing this past Sunday and are definitely looking forward…read moreto going back again. Adam was very informative as he gave the safety briefing and demonstrations. He was also able to give some pointers to help correct our form after we had a chance to throw a few rounds. Following our hour of throwing, Adam helped us navigate the unfamiliar offerings on tap. Love that they're supporting local breweries.

If you've been debating going to TreeGO in Moncton, save some fuel $ and stay in NS. I've done both…read moreTreeGO and OnTree twice. I'll stick with OnTree. Why? Let's do some comparing. Courses TreeGO has three courses - they're all fun but kind of long. OnTree has 12 courses - they are generally shorter but they also have a ranking system so you know how difficult they are. And a separate kids' area. ...And that's really it. That's the big point for OnTree. The equipment is also slightly different - a bit less convenient because it's safer. The rules and formats are pretty similar. It's mostly that there are more courses (which means shorter lines) and you can choose how difficult you want it to be. With TreeGO, you do the three courses and then ... you come back and do them again? With OnTree, you can start off easy and work your way up to Black Diamond (... not that I have). If you have a group (15 or more?) you can also get a discount which is nice. I definitely see this as a good team-building venture. But you can't really keep that large a group together. Half the people will finish a course before the last person even gets to the first obstacle. Seriously - this place is just fun.

So I'm just going to say this right now: I am terrified of heights, something that has to do with…read morebones breaking and stuff. But I am trying to get over that fear. Now I have this friend, whenever she suggests something, I can never say no to. Especially when it revolves around adventures. When said friend suggested that we go ziplining, I knew I couldn't say no mostly because I knew I needed to face my fears once and for all. So we head down there and let me say after one major panic attack while being stuck in a spider's net and being filmed on NovaScotiaWeb cams, I realised that I need to work on my upper body strength and how safe this adventure is. They give you a 10 minute tutorial on how to work things, you get to wear a helmet, gloves and a harness and everything is so well done that you know you're going have a great time. I really do reccomend this to anyone and I can't wait to go back!
