Directions

Take exit 4 on highway 103. Turn onto Bay Road (highway 3) heading towards Halifax. Drive ~2km until you see Bay Self-Storage on your right. The Bluff Trail parking lot is immediately afterward. It is a gravel lot with a gate. If you drive past a large white church on your left you have gone too far. Park your car and head to the far end (back) of the parking lot to the BLT trail. This wide multi-use trail leads to the trailhead proper. Turn right on the BLT trail and walk a few hundred meters along the trail, passing underneath highway 103. Soon after the highway, the trailhead with its large sign is on your left.

Details

The trail is in the form of four stacked loops that eventually go around Upper Five Bridge Lake and join with canoe access at Paradise Cove. There in only one trailhead, located on the Beechville-Lakeside-Timberlea (BLT) trail at a point midway between the Hwy 103 overpass just south of Exit 4 and the northern tip of Cranberry Lake. Three canoe-accessible trailheads will be constructed at the south ends of Cranberry Lake, Frederick Lake, and Hubley Big Lake. The first two loops of the trail (the Pot Lake Loop and the Indian Hill Loop) are about 12 km. The second two loops (called the Bluff Loop and the Hay Marsh Loop) were constructed in 2004. The four loop system covers over 30 km.
