Where we are
The Mount is located in Halifax, Nova Scotia, Canada. Just minutes from downtown Halifax, the Mount offers the best of both worlds. You can enjoy the beautiful campus, which boasts wildlife, lush greenery, trails and a view of the Bedford basin. And you can take a short trip downtown where you can enjoy shopping,
waterfront cafes, theatre, and the exciting nightlife of the cultural heart of Atlantic Canada.
