The Napier Family Conservation Lands consist of 20 hectares of diverse wildlife habitat and undeveloped lakeshore overlooking Halifax’s beautiful Northwest Arm. Located off the Purcells Cove Road, this has long been a popular spot for nature-loving Haligonians who walk its shady paths, or swim in nearby Purcells Pond. The property was generously donated by the six siblings of the Napier family: Kenneth, John Jr. (by Corinne), Robert (by Agnes), Paul, Murray and Mary. They and their family before them enjoyed the rugged wilderness for generations and wanted to ensure that it would remain as it has always been.
