Getting There

We are located at: 9874 Highway 209, Diligent River

Parrsboro and Diligent River are situated along the southwestern shore of Cumberland County, Nova Scotia, facing the Bay of Fundy and the Minas Basin. Parrsboro is located on Highway 2 while Diligent River is located ten kilometers  further west on Highway 209.

Coming from the East?
When driving west  from Halifax turn off the Trans Canada Highway at Exit 12 at Glenholm and travel Highway 2 along the scenic Minas Shore to Parrsboro. On your way you will drive over Economy Mt. There is an easterly launch there. You will also pass by the Hidden Falls launch about 5k before you get to Parrsboro. This site is harder to find now that it is no longer a tourist destination and all signage is gone. When you reach Parrsboro proceed through it in the direction of Amherst. 1/2 a kilometer beyond the town limits you will intersect with Highway 209. Turn left toward Diligent River.

Coming from the West?
When driving  east from New Brunswick take Exit 4 at Amherst and travel south to Parrsboro. About 4km after turning off on Highway 2 watch out for Highway 302. Take that route if you are looking for the speedier way to the Parrsboro Shore. If you have time, stay on Highway 2 and take in Springhill. You'll get there eventually. As you approach Parrsboro you will intersect with Highway 209 in Cross Roads. Turn right toward Diligent River.

Proceed 10 km west to Diligent River where you will go through a cross roads indicating Diligent River Harbour and Glasgow Mountain. Drive straight  for another 2km and look for the signage indicating 9874. There is, as well, a sign there for Krista Wells' Studio. Bear left at the sign and then bear left almost immediatly along a dirt driveway which keeps going and going and going for 2 km until you reach the school which overlooks the Bay. You have arrived!!
