Established in 1968 for the Preservation of Williams Lake
We need your support! The application to rezone 48 – 50 Old Sambro Road from R-2P to R-3 was defeated by Halifax and West Community Council at its meeting on November 16, 2021. The developer has appealed that decision.
Urban parklands, wilderness forests and wild coastal tracts – are within HRM and we all have access to them. Or do we?
What does ‘accessibility’ actually mean? What is ‘sustainable’ and ‘equitable’ accessibility?
Happy Holidays from the Williams Lake Conservation Company!

The Shaw Wilderness Park on Williams Lake is 379 acres of old growth forests, granite ridges, with a hidden waterfall, panoramic views of Halifax’s skyline and a hiking trail with loads of interesting features. You can get lost in nature but not in the park.
From an historic low in October to the current level of 20 cm over the top of the dam, Williams Lake is back!!
