St. Margaret’s Bay Trail (part of Rum Runners Trail)

Located just 30 minutes from downtown Halifax, St. Margaret’s Bay Area Rails to Trails is a 33-km multi-use recreational trail with panoramic elevated views of St Margaret’s Bay in the South Shore region – the fascinating freshwater and saltwater marshes, and freshwater lakes.

The trail is part of the South Shore’s 109-km Rum Runners’ Trail, which runs from Halifax to Old Town Lunenburg UNESCO World Heritage Site.
