Hiking in Wentworth
Photo by Scotty SherinThe hiking trails
The scenic Wentworth Valley, nestled in Nova Scotia’s Appalachian Mountains, offers beauty and adventure for all seasons. Our out-and-back trails take you to the top of the mountain for arresting views of the valley and beyond.
This is a popular trail for birding, hiking, and snowshoeing, but you can still enjoy some solitude during quieter times of the day. The trail is accessible year-round and is beautiful to visit anytime.
Your adventure begins at the trail entrance in the north parking lot.

Let’s share in the beauty of the Wentworth Valley.
Wentworth would like to acknowledge the continued support of the Wentworth Valley Trails Association (WVT). The WVTA is currently upgrading their hiking trail signage system.
