Lonely Planet review for Point Pleasant Park

Rented to Canada by the British - for the bargain price of 10 cents a year - this wooded sanctuary at the far southern end of town is fittingly named. Make sure your boots are made for walking, though - no cars are allowed. You'll find 39km (24mi) of walking trails, picnic spots and a beach (of sorts).

There's also a restaurant and the Prince of Wales Martello Tower, a round 18th-century defensive structure. Great views can be had all the way around the park's perimeter. Walk out to the lighthouse to take in the busy shipping activity at the nearby Port of Halifax.
