Nova Scotians and visitors will soon be able to enjoy 15 new provincial parks and more space at two others.
These designations of Crown land will put the province more than halfway to its commitment of having 205 provincial parks, part of the parks and protected areas plan.
“Nova Scotia is one of the most beautiful places on earth, and we are taking significant steps to protect this beauty for generations to come,” said Tory Rushton, Minister of Natural Resources and Renewables. “These parks help protect biodiversity and give Nova Scotians more places to get outside and enjoy nature.”
