Page 6, EXPLORER, 2017 Official Visitors Guide VIDEO Annapolis Royal from Granville Ferry (Melanson) he colourful Annapolis Royal/Port-Royal Area – one of the oldest permanent European settlements in North America – has been welcoming visitors since 1604. In fact the Order of Good Cheer, North America’s first social club, was started here in 1606. The same attributes that Champlain saw over 400 years ago continue to make this a “must see” destination for discerning travelers. Although quite safe and peaceful today, Annapolis Royal holds the distinction of being the most fought over tract of land in Canada. With over 130 registered heritage properties and 4 National Historic Sites, picturesque Annapolis Royal is one of Canada’s largest National Historic Districts. ~ Canada’s Roots Imagine over four centuries of history coming to life before your very eyes. The Mi’kmaq, Scottish, French, British, Acadian, Loyalist, New England Planter and African Canadian cultures intertwined to form a colourful mosaic unparalleled in the nation. Canada’s roots are deep here. The area served as colonial capital for both the French and British before Louisbourg and Halifax. Even our province’s name, Nova Scotia, (Latin for “New Scotland”) is attributed to the Scottish attempt to colonize our area (1621-1632). The Scots also gave us our Nova Scotia Flag and Coat of Arms and built Charles Fort on the grounds where Fort Anne is located today. The rich Acadian (“ Cajun”) story also started here when French families settled on our scenic shores in the 1630s. The Annapolis Royal/Port-Royal Area is known as the cradle of Acadie, and there are over 3,000,000 Acadian descendants worldwide. ~ The Best of Both Worlds Combine the rich, cultural heritage with access to the world-famous Bay of Fundy only 10 minutes away, and you’ll discover an Explorer’s paradise! Eco-tourism adventures abound amidst spectacular scenery, gardens, lakes, rivers, wilderness trails and a moderate climate tempered by the Gulf Stream. The region is also 1 of only 18 UNESCO Biosphere Reserves in Canada in recognition of its globally significant ecological and cultural landscape and commitment to sustainable development and conservation. Escape into nature, relax, and invigorate your body, mind and soul. Whether you prefer petals, pedals or paddles, are a history buff or nature lover, the Annapolis Royal Area offers the best of both worlds and a bouquet of adventures for all ages. ~ Award-Winning Hospitality & Amenities Let the EXPLORER Visitors Guide introduce you to award-winning accommodations, unique shopping experiences, an array of artists and craftsmen, delightful dining, colourful gardens and art galleries, interesting museums, lively theatre, waterfront boardwalk, a multitude of fun-filled tours and attractions plus stately homes set amidst scenic vistas.

  • Groundwater Resources and Hydrogeology of the Western Annapolis Valley, Nova Scotia (Trescott, 1969)
    PROVINCE OF NOVA SCOTIA DEPARTMENT OF MINES Groundwater Section Report 69- 1 GROUNDWATER RESOURCES AND HYDROGEOLOGY of the WESTERN ANNAPOLIS VALLEY, NOVA SCOTIA by Peter C. Trescott HON. PERCY GAUM J.P. NOWLAN, Ph.D. MIN ISTE R DEPUTY MINISTER Halifax, Nova Scotia 1969 PREFACE The Nova S coti a Department of Mines initiated in 1964 an extensive program to evaluate the groundwater resources of the Province of Nova Scotia. This report on the hydrogeology of the We s t e r n Annapolis Val ley supplements the Annapolis-Cornwallis Valley report (Department of Mines Memoir 6) by dis- cussing the groundwater resources of the area southwest of Annapolis Royal. The field work for this study was carried out during the summer of 1968 by the Groundwater Section, Nova Scotia Department of Mines, and is a joint undertaking between the Canada Department of Forestry and Rural Development and the Province of Nova Scotia (ARDA proiect No. 22042). Recently the ad- ministration of the ARDA Act was transferred to the Canada Department of Regional Economic Expansion. It should be pointed out that many individuals and other govern m e n t agencies cooperated in supplying much valuable i n f orm a t i on and assistance throughout the period of study. To list a few: Dr. J. D. Wright, Director, Geological Division and the staff of the Mineral Resources Section, Nova Scotia Department of Mines, the Nova Scotia Agricultural College at Truro, and the Nova Scotia Department ofAgriculture who made available manuscript soil maps of Annapolis County. It is hoped that information in this report will be useful for agricultural, industrial, municipal and individual water needs and that the report will serve as a guide for the future exploration, development and use of the largely un- developed groundwater resources of the Western Annapolis Val ley.
