Had a great time camping out on South Lake at the (almost) top of the Ingram System. Great spot with a number of appealing campsites and portages crosscrossing the area, maintained by CKNS volunteers ;)
The access is easy and pretty close to metro halifax, 55km. You could get a three day trip out of this area, even longer if you made a loop with Dauphin Mills Lake, Lake Panuke and some ocean paddling.
