The Ovens Natural Park

I recently spent a lovely afternoon at a place called “The Ovens natural Park”..

I had heard such great comments about this place that when the opportunity arose for a traveling companion and I to visit- I grabbed it with both hands very firmly. I was not disappointed

Admission was $8.00 per adult and $4.00 per child. If you take your own drinks and food it is an affordable day out that will give you some great views and memories and some exercise too.

“Ovens Natural Park is a privately owned 190 acre pristine reserve of coastal forest, located on the Atlantic coast of Nova Scotia, along the scenic Lighthouse Route. For hundreds of years, people have been drawn to the incredible beauty, diverse geography, spiritual solace, and fascinating history that make The Ovens Natural Park so unique. Every year, thousands of park visitors hike the spectacular trails along the cliffs to view the famous sea caves, or “Ovens” for which the park was named.”

Second Peninsula Provincial Park- Lunenburg

There are many beautiful places to visit along the South Shore of Nova Scotia.

I recently discovered the Second Peninsula Provincial Park one evening and shall be returning frequently now I have had a taste of it’s beauty and privacy.

The Second Peninsula Provincial Park is a large scenic picnic park set right on the ocean. It has tables scattered under a stand of spruce and fir and can accommodate group picnics. To get there locate Lunenburg and travel 10 km south of Hwy 103 Exit 10.
