Lake Lawson Trail New Ross
Lawson Lake Trail is tucked along highway 12 just over 30 km from Kentville. If you’ve passed Ross Farm you’ve gone a smidgen too far.
It starts at the Lion’s Club Park and meanders down the hill and turns right. Once you start to get peeks of the lake, it’s just beautiful.
Actually, its 3 trails ends to end. Starting out with the Meadow Trail at Lions Club park and the connecting to the Lake Lawson Lake Trail with a loop of Country Road walk if you’d like to add on.
Each section can access Ross Farm.
There is some elevation but nothing two serious and places where you could sneak in for a swim in summer.
If you’re in the area and want something a little longer, with more elevation, Ruby’s Trail is a favorite and so much fun for the whole family.
