Each day will be as active or still as you desire. Outdoor recreation beckons, including river & lake swimming, canoeing, kayaking, mountain bikes, & catch-and-release fishing. Hike the woodland trails of our 100 acre estate & the adjoining public wilderness. At the convergence of the Tusket & Napier Rivers, River Bend Lodge & the Cottages border the last pristine nature area in Nova Scotia. See bear, moose, turtles, flying squireels, deer, beaver, owls, loons, & eagles. Relax, stroll a nature path, kayak in the the river, or simply read a book on the porch. During the winter, bring your cross-country skis, skates, or snow shoes for hours of enjoyment and exercise.

If you want to smell the salt air & feel the spray let us arrange sea kayaking, a Zodiac cruise, or deep sea fishing for you. A short drive out of the wilderness takes you to historic Shelburne, with its 18th century historic district & natural deep water harbor, or Yarmouth, a working seaport and home to scenic Cape Forchu. A little further on beyond Shelburne (about 1 1/2 hours from the lodge) lies the Seaside Adjunct of Kejmikujik National Park, where you can visit beautiful sandy beaches and see seals playing in the pristine Atlantic waters. Both Yarmouth & Shelburne counties have numerous museums, parks, and natural areas to fill days of exploration and discovery.

The Tobeatic is interconnected by lakes, streams and rivers, offering outstanding wilderness canoeing, camping and hiking. It is a storied region of the province known best for its moose herd, trout streams, and rugged canoe routes through rocky lakes and wild rivers. These routes, first traveled by Mi'kmaq, supported a world-class "sportman's" guiding tradition through the late 19th and early 20th century. The traditions of hunting, fishing, trapping and guiding are alive today, with the travel ways of the Tobeatic frequented by local recreational enthusiasts, youth organizations, and professional outfitters alike.

The Tobeatic Management Planning Exercise has been initiated in partnership with key local community, government, industry, conservation and recreation interests to develop a comprehensive management plan for the Wilderness Area.
