Nova Scotia
Nova Scotia's topography is a diverse blend of rugged highlands, rolling hills, and fertile lowlands. The province's landscape is shaped by several upland regions, including the Southern Upland, North Mountain, and Cobequid Mountain, which are interspersed with extensive lowlands. The Southern Upland rises from the Atlantic coast to elevations between 180 and 210 meters (591 to 689 feet) inland, while the North Mountain runs parallel along the Bay of Fundy, creating fertile valleys like those of the Annapolis and Cornwallis rivers. Cape Breton Island, part of Nova Scotia, features the Cape Breton Highlands, a wild, wooded plateau peaking over 550 meters (1,804 feet) above sea level, contributing to the scenic character of Cape Breton Highlands National Park. The province's coastline is heavily indented, accounting for its length of approximately 400 km (249 miles). The coast is mostly rock with small isolated sand beaches in sheltered bays. The largest coastal features include St. Margarets Bay, Halifax Harbour/Bedford Basin, Cole Harbour, Musquodoboit Harbour, Jeddore Harbour, Ship Harbour, Sheet Harbour, and Ecum Secum Harbour. The province's topography spans from lush farmland in the Musquodoboit Valley to rocky and heavily forested rolling hills. It includes a number of islands and peninsulas, among them McNabs Island, Beaver Island, Melville Island, Deadman's Island, and Sable Island. This varied terrain, combined with over 3,000 lakes and numerous rivers, creates a rich and picturesque landscape.
