Overview
Head out on this 6.8-km loop trail in Coxheath, Nova Scotia. Generally considered a moderately challenging route, it takes an average of 2 h 3 min to complete. There are shorter loops available to walk which can take as little as 45 min. This is a popular trail for birding and hiking and snowshoeing but you can still enjoy some solitude during quieter times of day. There are some really beautiful look-out spots along the trail where you will get to see a vista of Sydney and the surrounding areas. The trail is open year-round and is beautiful to visit anytime.
For a great day out, plan a hike on one of our trails, followed by one of our wonderful community events at our Community Centre.
Be sure to follow us on Instagram, Facebook or visit our website to keep up to date on all our music, art & community events that we host year round at The Coxheath Hills Community Centre.
