Nice place for a walk

Carol C

Very nice little trail; spacious and easy to walk. Lots of shade and the pond is filled with life. Many ducks and chipmunks.

Jay Tulk

For a small park it's loaded with trails! Make sure to adventure off of the crusher dust. If you're lucky you'll find your way to the Dingle!

Alberto Rodriguez

Awesome loop for a run or walk

Gord Potts

A nice place to walk around. It had plenty of trees decorated for Christmas along the trails.

Max Froil

Been there in the winter where you can walk and/or skate on the lake. Its a pretty chill place to just relax, have a breath of fresh air and enjoy the silence. If you want to take pictures, go by a couple hours before sunset, youll get the best lighting condition at that time. As for the frogs, well dont expect to see any in the winter since they are beneath the ice most likely.

Tonia Hartnett

Great place for a stroll.

Stephan Hicks

Claims of the presence of frogs seem to be greatly exaggerated. Beautiful little walking trail, but should probably be renamed Squirrel or Duck park.

Natalia Albuquerque

Beautiful and relaxing! Lots of trees and ducks :)

Amanda Nightingale

It's a great shaded place to go for a walk, see ducks, squirrels, people walking dogs... In theory you can fish for bass in the pond.

Tolga ILDIZ

Very nice trails. I would say great for beginners.

Georgios Roussos

Worth to visit!!

Joanie Scott

Stephen Fralick

Trails are wide, and easy to walk. Great for the whole family

Roy Longmire

Great place for a walk.

Avery Opalka

This park is the perfect length to walk around with a young child. I highly recommend taking your child there and they will probably enjoy it. There are lots of ducks (ducklings in the spring), squirrels, and other animals to be seen. It's great because you don't have to go far out of the city to go on a nice walk through the woods. Also a great park for dogs.

Shawn Gillan

Beautiful trail around the water. Loops around, not too long for little ones.

Ariel Henley

Love this trail! It's perfect place to bring your dog or kids. There's provided dog poop bags at both entrances. It's also a great trail for running. It's also perfect to relax and look at scenery and/or sit near the ducks in the pond.

Dion Melo

Very nice

james kelly

Clean and quiet

J Lee

My toddler son was able to complete this hike on his own.

TS F20

Relaxing walk, not too challenging, very peaceful!

H M

Well maintained trails. Popular spot. When the weather is cold enough and the ice is thick enough, the pond is perfect for skating. Near by you can take your children to several playground areas if you need a different outdoor activity and in the summer you can always enjoy a great show at the the Frog Pond Theatre.

Mark Warner

Love walking here so nice

Carol Edwards

The beauty of this place is incomparable!

Omar Rosales

Great place to walk and see the Lake with ducks

Barry MacDougall

Excellent for run or walking take the puppy for the tour remember the doggy bags just in case.

Tyler Guest

Love frog pond. It may just be because it's a new spot to me, but it does have really nice paths with boardwalks, benches, nature etc. Great space!

Baruch Pletner

Great hiking for families and dogs

Joy Hoskin

A lovely trail. Half an hour would give a refreshing walk. Ducks. Squirrels. Boardwalks and rocky trails. Great for careful walkers. Oct walk is very colorful with the changing leaves on many trees throughout the walk. Frequent benches along the way. Plenty of parking. Popular spot. There is a pond lookoff that is wheelchair accessible.

DianaRamirez 1411

The trails are very nice for hiking

John Chang

One of the best places to hike in Halifax

Breakthrough Gamer

Diego

Lovely park

J G

One of my favourite short walks with my Dog and Kids! The trail isn't maintained in the winter so keep that in mind as it can get icy. It is a Beautiful walk through the woods with a necessary stop by the lake to see the Ducks. Many people take notice of the Single Beautiful Wood Duck among all the other Mallards. There is a couple paths off the Duck Pond trail leading towards the Dingle also. Take note it is not an entire circle and if you don't walk the path back you must walk alongside a stretch of herring cove road to return to the parking lot. Many choose to simply turn around and take the same path back.

Lauriane veyrent

great for runners walkers ! ducks to feed !

Ednaturals Bar

Perfect for a short and relaxing walk. Good option when you have 15 min only.

Bonnie Batten

So pretty

Matt Beauchamp

Shade and sun and water and ducks. Lovely little trail.

Moath Basil

Good

Kypros Stylianou

Recently moved to Halifax area, and happy that we discovered the Frog Pond. A short drive for us and a beautiful place to walk our dogs. We are now regular visitors!

Stephen Hendsbee

Great trail and Skating in the winter.

Amanda Grimaldi

Sometimes busy, but a delightful little loop hike. Peaceful, and easy enough for a beginning trail runner. Typically come across 5-15 other folks while I'm on the trail, many with dogs, so lots of furry friends to be made. Don't feed the ducks!

Rob G

So beautiful. It's a good 15-20 minutes around the lake. We love to go for a nice, wooded walk a few times per summer. Bring some nutritious bird food and feed the ducks! They love it. Unless you're not supposed to, but I've never seen any signs. Oddly, I have yet to see a frog. Plenty of ducks. Squirrels even. But no frogs. I'm gonna have to go back and keep looking...

Eran Maia

Beautiful Trail! Lovely Neighborhood with Lots of parking.

Raymond Adekayode

Great walking trail

Daewon Lee

Clean and nice

L Olmstead

Such a beautiful Park. Exciting paths to explore in a gorgeous forest. It connects to Fleming Park and Halifax Recreation Adventure Earth Centre where you can enjoy a variety of programs and activities for all ages. If you want to explore the park in the winter, they even have free snow shoes to borrow.

Matthew Robinson

amazing trail just outside of downtown to go for a run, walk, bike ride

judyta frodyma

beautiful place that feels sacred and joyful.

Cheryl Anne

The trail has a connection going to Dingle park. It is near a lake and the view is really beautiful plus there are some ducks that feed in the area.

Mike Donahue

Really nice, short trail, right in the city. Worth a visit in any season. Lakes make for some great skating in the winter when the conditions are right for it.

N Roy

Perfect for a local hike

Anna Bella

Perfect????--no need for words--loom at the pics.!✌

Diego Barnech

Nice walk

Carrie Guo

This is definitely one of my favorite places in Halifax! Im a hiking lovers and this spot is always perfect for me! Frog pond park is a perfect size for hikers, not too big not too small. If you just wanna a lazy hike on the weekend, this place is a hit! Only one thing that a little bit annoying me was not a lot of buses. Only one bus an hour... otherwise I’ll go there like everyday!

Frederick Jamieson

Most breath taking 2 km walk

Frog Pond Park is located in Jollimore community and is part of Sir Sandford Fleming Park. Frog Pond Lake trails are well maintained by the municipality. Frog Pond Lake is bigger than how much it looks from the entrance off the Purcells Cove Rd. The park and the trails go all the way to the east to the Dingle Rd. There are mesmerizing stairs at one of the two entrances off the Dingle Rd. Though its name is Frog Pond Lake unfortunately never witnessed any frogs around. However it’s a resort and home to few spices of ducks. In the summer you can find territorial fights and ducklings swimming following mama duck. In summer evenings mosquitoes rule so don’t forget bringing some repellent cream or spray. In winter front section of the lake freezes solid foremost than the rest of the lake and other lakes around making it ideal for ice skating. Also, the front section is not that deep so it’s not as risky to take the chance, however, making sure the thickness of the ice is always recommended. In my opinion its the only lake with trails and forest like ambiance closest to the Halifax.

Mato Media

Beautiful views, lots of animals

Andrew Townsend

Michael “Mike” Baldridge

Great location

J. Ross Mayhew

This compact semi-wilderness park within 5 minutes' drive of peninsular Halifax, is a TRUE gem!! It is bisected by Purcell's Cove Rd, although most folks are unaware of this: they only visit the side with the parking lot and wheelchair accessible but not overly-wide trail. The part on the other side of the road is much wilder, with a lovely little pond and wetland but no formal trails. The main trail sticks close to the shoreline of the Frog Pond proper, and goes through some positively DELIGHTFUL territory, including swamp where it becomes a boardwalk. Great for cycling, doggie walking, short family outings, or just simply to relax for a while in a wild but very safe setting. 10 thumbs up!!

Darlene Lewis

I can't believe I've never been to the frog pond before. All my life I've known it was there, however I never knew there was a walking trail around it. I didn't get the chance to walk all of the frog pond because I wore dress shoes and not runners. I will definitely be going back. It's so beautiful and peaceful. God's handiwork at its finest ????.

Ergul Kocabas

A small pond surrounded by trails

My favourite breath of fresh forest air, just off the peninsula. A few different loops to explore. Benches along the way. Mossy rocks, tall trees, friendly people.

Nathan Case

Really nice walk.

Chris Xu (Chris X.)

Great place to skate and play hockey if you dare. Also, you will face a fine of $222 if you feed the water fowl. I have no idea how they come up with this specific amount.

Great place for a walk with the kids.

Candice Grizzle

Great spot for a walk. Ducks and all. Perfect for dogs and kids or just a nice walk or jog

George Pearson

It was nice, next to no garbage cans so expect to carry garbage with you

Lisa-Jane DeMone

Great for skating! A little rough (of course) but certainly enjoyable!

A T

Nice little loop around the pond. It's relatively flat so suitable for all ages. There are also paths that lead to Dingo Park and a few trails that go into the woods, so a walk can lead into a fun little adventure. Plenty of parking too, so it's a great way to spend an afternoon if you live in the city and want to get out of the house.

Greg Duncan

Great trails easy walk, great dog walking area

Jeremy Rintoul

Nice little walk with some beautiful little spots.

Janice Ptak

Some ice on the trail by the brook, but such a beautiful park!

Laura Funicelli

Very picturesque little park, lovely easy walk around the eponymous Frog Pond. Crusher dust paths. Side routes connect to the nearby Dingle (Fleming Park). Can manage the main paths with a baby stroller, the side paths might be tricky. Free parking, always open spaces. Sightings of turtles in the marsh area under the boardwalks not uncommon. Abundant ducks, squirrels and birds. Great for kids.

Ryan D

Great place for a stroll

amy kian

nice trial, lots of ducks good for kids to feed them

Tristan Smith

Great path through the woods to take the kids

Great trail, guilt, natural; and in the city!

Beautiful park with gravel walking trails that go throughout the park, around the pond and also join to the trails at the Dingle. Great place to walk your dog.

Great family trail .

Mr Donovan

Great little spot to get out for walks. Was still winter when I was there so some icy spots but in general it was a great experience. Going back in the very near future.

Tarazed Alshain

Nice walk but no frogs. Saw 2 yellow warblers and a duck with her ducklings.

Patricia MacDonald

Love this trail! Came here for the first time since I was young. Brought my 5 year old son and friend. We did the whole trail in an hour and 15 minutes (many stops to look at things). I loved that there was flat terrain and also little hills. I highly recommend this trail!

Susan Campbell

Beautiful spot. Sitting on one of the benches and looking over the lake is good for the soul.

Garry Wilson

Great place to walk your dog on leash

Ran ben shabat

Nice place!

Shelby LeLacheur

My favorite trail in the city. Feels like you're not even in town. Lots of birds, ducks and other little animals. Not a heavily grommed trail very easy to do with a few more challenging inclines. Few rocks sticking up from the trail so watch your step. Love this place!

Hillary Jones

This park is so nice! Seems to have a lot of blackflies so plan to keeping moving. Stroller friendly! Great for kids!

Steven Bruin

This pond is excellent in the summer or winter. We go walking, and have seen people canoeing during the summer. As well as skating and snowshoeing in the winter. Or you can just sit and watch the wild fowl. It is really accessible at all times of year. There is generally a reasonable amount of parking.

Sam deZ

We stopped here to have a picnic lunch as we entered Halifax. Ample parking. Washroom facilities and picnic tables available.
