Frog Pond Trail

About This Experience

"The frog pond loop is an easy 1.4km around a large pond, with trail connections to the Dingle Tower & Northwest Arm.

There are numerous benches to sit on, as well as peaceful nooks by the pond. Various trail maps and markers guide your way whether you are doing a loop or carrying on towards the Northwest Arm.

The frog pond is a haven for ducks, frogs, turtles and waterfowl alike, making it a great place for bird-watching. The viewing area off of Purcell’s Cove Road makes a good spot to stop. This area can also be used to go paddling in summer, or to strap on your skates in winter."

Land Acknowledgement

Halifax is in Mi’kma’ki, the ancestral and unceded territory of the Mi’kmaq people. The people of the Mi’kmaw Nation have lived on this territory for millennia, and we acknowledge them as the past, present and future caretakers of this land.  Historically, a land acknowledgment is a traditional practice shared amongst Indigenous groups to recognize the Indigenous land and territory they are visiting. Today a land acknowledgement remains a way to express one’s gratitude to the Indigenous people for being stewards of the land that we live and work on.
