A little green gem nestled near Dartmouth, perfect for walking and cycling. It is a typical example of forests in the Eastern shore: with lots of marches, little lakes and streams. The trees are very seldom big and tall due to the impenetrable rocky bed covered with only shallow layer of red soil. Alas the root system is shallow, too, therefore prone to falling during frequent high winds or root rot. The southern end of the forest is located be the entrance to the Halifax peninsula in Cow Bay, the northern by the big marches near Havens Beach, to the west lays Dartmouth – to the east the vast waters of open Atlantic.
An early evening bike ride was a perfect timing as the trail was empty for practical reasons, air was cool, the rain very light and very sporadic.
