Truro: "On The Glooscap Trail"
Enjoy a little friendly competition in the great outdoors
at one of over eight golf courses, all within a 45 minute drive of the
Glengarry. Or if a stroll on the greens is not for you, perhaps a stroll
through scenic Victoria Park is.
Whatever your mood for adventure, there are dozens of events, festivals and local attractions throughout the year, sure to satisfy. Learn about our geological heritage at Mastodon Ridge, watch the famous tidal bore or get caught up in the excitement of pounding hoofs at the race track. Truro is the “Hub” of Nova Scotia making it an ideal stay for many varied day trips. We are only a mere 2 hour drive from New Brunswick and PEI with the famous Cabot Trail being 3 hours away. We at the Best Western are ready for whatever you have in mind. |
