Description:
Generations of Halifax residents have used these pristine lakes for active recreation including an 8-lake canoe route with portages. Now partially preserved as a Wilderness Area, new access points with more trails will be built once the Regional Park is established.

The Birch Cove Lakes Trail is located in the Blue Mountain-Birch Cove Lake Wilderness area. Though HNWTA does not steward this trail, we have been supporting the creation of a regional park in this area.
