This is Duncan's Cove rd, and the giant parking lot that can be used by hikers. |
After walking down Gannet Ln, go over or around this high security gate
then enter the woods by this pole, and your in! aight see ya later have a good hike... jk I took some pics that'll make you say, well that's neat.
walking along Gannet Ln, before the trail.
So we took a different way then I think most ppl take. The good thing is its next to impossible to get lost, even with no trail markers. There are lots of little foot path options, but be careful some are veryyyy muddy.
Sandwich break
WWII bunker, saaawweetttt.

Watch Rock, keeping the coast safe.

Rock-o-rama
Postcard! tell me this is not a postcard pic!
The trail can get pretty vertical if you drop into the coves, there are ways to avoid doing this if you're not up for the challenge. Some rocks are loose and would be a death trap if wet, so remember what I always say, don't die.
you also run along some steep drops (watch your step)
You can see the second of the Bunkers, that's the turn around point. (oh yeah, The Hike isn't a loop)
looking a lil tropical
lots of coast line...
I've run out of things to say about the coast line... its nice, you should go.
take the highroad or the low road, your pick #CoastLine.
chillin in a crevahsss
there is a lighthouse out there #CoastLine
creepy house, human centipede? (prolly preying on lonely hikers :s)
Fun Hike, close to Halifax. About 5-8 km long, depending on the path you choose to take (we did about 5.7km in 2.5hrs, lots of pictures and sandwiches). The terrain is quite technical, and can turn into some moments of climbing/ bouldering. make sure you got proper footwear, waterproof would be helpful, the place is a mud hole at the beginning.
