Indulge in 1 hour of kayaking at Long Lake Provincial Park. Encapsulating Long Lake, the gem, this 5000+ acre green refuge is nestled on the brink of Halifax’s metropolis, merely a ten-minute ride away from the heart of the city. Long Lake was the primary source of water for Halifax from the mid-1800s until the 1970s, and as such, has always been safeguarded against nearby development potentially compromising its water purity. Consequently, a 3 km+ long serene lake borders the city, boasting immaculate water and an untouched, unspoiled natural shoreline. Long Lake makes the perfect spot to devote a few hours exploring its numerous inlets, a pair of islands and the historic dam responsible for forming the lake’s present layout two centuries prior.
