Nova Scotia is promoted as Canada’s ocean playground. Because Musquodoboit Valley is inland, our playground is an area that’s rich with things other than dories, lobster traps and seagulls. Instead, we host festivals and celebrate great outdoor adventures and so much more!

Annually, approximately 3.5 million travellers use the Halifax Stanfield International Airport. Musquodoboit Valley is only 45 minutes away and only an hour’s drive away from the province’s capital city of Halifax. Within 90 kilometres of our location are the towns of Truro, New Glasgow, Stewiacke, and Amherst. We invite you to explore Musquodoboit Valley's 714 square kilometres. Pristine lakes, natural forests and scenic landscapes are enjoyed daily by those who live here and visitors are thrilled to see the natural beauty of our Valley.
