FORT PETRIE

WHERE TO FIND IT
Fort Petrie is located along the scenic Colliery Trail in New Victoria, NS.  The Fort is situated on the ocean with a spectacular view of North Sydney and surrounding areas. 

On a clear day you can see every detail of the communities accross the harbor.  If you are lucky you might even catch one of the Marine Atlantic ferries, or a foreign cruise ship in the summer months, arriving or departing. 

If you are not familiar with the area I have inserted a map below to give a rough approximation of where you can find Fort Petrie.
