The Stan “Chook” Maxwell Memorial Park is located at 264 Prince Street. The community of West Prince Street envisioned this park as a place of sanctuary, which encourages recreation and enjoyment of the outdoors. The park is an integral part of the neighbourhood and offers a basketball court, playground, community gardens, and more.
The Pleasant Street Playground is located at 449 Pleasant Street. This small playground provides a large open green space and a few playground features, such as swings and a slide. Parking is available off of Pleasant Street in front of the Town’s Water Tower.
Victoria Park is one of Truro's greatest assets - a natural woodland park of roughly 3,000 acres in the centre of our Town with an extensive trail system for all ages.
Hurricane Fiona Damage Update (March 2023)
The majority of trails in Victoria Park are open for recreational use. We continue to ask the public to follow all trail signage, as we will close individual trails to remove fallen trees and repair infrastructure during the upcoming months/years.
Please be advised that some trails and stairs do not exist at this time and the ‘Fairview Drive entrance’ of “Lewis Road” to “Five Corners” remains closed due to extensive damage.
Thank you for your patience and cooperation!
