Best time to visit Wentworth Provincial Park

Late June through early September offers the most reliable weather for picnicking, swimming in nearby rivers, and hiking the valley trails. July and August bring warm days and the peak of summer tourism along the Sunrise Trail. September and early October are excellent shoulder-season choices, with cooler temperatures and vivid hardwood fall colours in the Wentworth Valley. Winter visits focus on nearby ski and snowshoe activities rather than the park itself.

This trip was amazing! It all started the day before we were supposed to pick up the RV, I was admitted into the hospital to have my appendix removed. Our hosts had a few days after we finished our original trip so they bumped it four days to accommodate our trip. We changed our plans but it worked out for the best. We traveled all around the south part of Nova Scotia, staying at The Ovens, Scallywags in Clare and then the last stop was at the campground at the Blomidon Lookoff. The RV was absolutely perfect from start to finish and for the size of it was very good on fuel. $465 for just over 1200km in a F-450, which is great fuel mileage. We normally go testing but tried this, our next testing camping trip will be horrible. Lol. We will feel spoiled. If you are considering this size of vehicle and this style of trip, this vehicle and host make the experience so much better! Book it while you can!

The rv was just the right size for our family of 5 to create a memorable trip. The rv is fully equipped, has plenty of power to climb and safely descend Cape Bretons Cabot trail and surroundings plus tons of little extras. We were actually impressed by the fuel consumption and handling of this rv. All being said, we agree with pretty much all the previous reviews. The host(s) were spot on and adaptive to our needs. Once again, no regrets going with RVezy.

How to get to Wentworth Provincial Park

The park lies along Highway 4 in the Wentworth Valley, roughly a 45 minute drive from Truro and about 1 hour from Amherst, with Halifax approximately 2 hours to the south. Most RV travellers exit Highway 104 (Trans-Canada) at Wentworth and follow Highway 4 through the valley, which includes winding sections and moderate grades that large rigs should take at reduced speed. There are no tunnels or low-clearance obstacles on the main route, but watch for narrow shoulders and logging trucks. Halifax Stanfield International Airport is the nearest major airport for fly-and-rent trips, about 2 hours away by road.
