Charlie Loves the Hemlock Ravine in Bedford! |
Hemlock Ravine is directly off the Bedford Highway and has a lot of nice trails. It is very much like the Duck Pond/Dingle area in Spryfield. The trails can be confusing though. I got totally lost when I was there, but I met a very nice lady named Amy who helped me and I have actually stayed in contact with her since so it turned out to be a very nice trip. It is a bit more hilly than my middle-aged body could take, especially when I got lost. There is houses all around the park so you have to keep your eyes open and on the dogs so that they don't end up on a side street or someone's back yard! There has been some talk of making part of the park off-leash which would be perfect for the resident's of Bedford - Seaview Park and Point Pleasant are a long way to go when they have such a perfect spot so close to home. Although when I have been there it seems like there is a lot of people there for the sole purpose of walking with their dogs off-leash. I would say the neighborhood resident use this park a lot. One thing I did notice was the absolute absence of dog poop on the ground. This is the only place in the whole of the HRM where I never saw even one pile! This park is great for walking and enjoying nature. It's mostly woods with lots of uneven terrain on the side of the paths so the dogs can have lots of stuff to smell and dig in. |
