Hemlock ravine is located just off the Bedford Highway half way between Halifax and Bedford. On the Bedford Highway watch for the Rotunda (an old, white, round building with pillars) on the water side of the road.  Directly across from the Rotunda is Kent Ave. which will lead you to the small parking lot for Hemlock Ravine.
