Hosting the headwaters of Nova Scotia’s two finest rivers, the Medway Lakes Wilderness Area boasts small ancient lakes, sandy summertime beaches tucked in quiet coves and pine and hemlock sheltered campsites.

Rather than driving into Kejimkujik National Park, the following rendezvous location will save you a fair bit of driving and an entrance fee. The address is: 5439 Hwy 8. South Milford, Nova Scotia and the landmark is The Milford Community Hall (just north of the legendary Milford House). Please be there for between 12pm! You can copy the following code and region into the Google Maps search bar: HHGV+9Q South Milford, Nova Scotia
From here you'll follow your Whynot Adventure guide in your own vehicle to our private gated property on Boot Lake. Once parked you'll start to unload the canoes and equipment and then proceed with the 'duffle shuffle' where you'll be given a waterproof pack to put your personal items into. Our guide will provide lunch before you pack the canoes and paddle off into the wilderness!
