The Chain Lakes are a series of small connected lakes that sit alongside the Chain of Lakes Trail in Halifax. They create an open waterfront corridor with several viewpoints directly from the trail, including access to First Chain Lake and Second Chain Lake. The lakes provide consistent water views and serve as natural landmarks along the paved route.
