How to Use This Long Lake, Nova Scotia Map

This interactive map shows the street layout and satellite imagery for Long Lake, Nova Scotia. Use the Map and Satellite buttons above to switch between street map and aerial imagery views. Use the + and − buttons to zoom in or out, or scroll your mouse wheel while holding the Control key to zoom. On a touchscreen, use a two-finger pinch gesture to zoom in and out.

Click ⛶ Fullscreen to expand the map to fill your screen for a larger view. To return to the normal page view, press the Escape key on your keyboard, click the ✕ Exit Fullscreen button that appears above the map, or on a mobile device tap the back button (Android) or the close icon (iOS).

Drag the map to pan to any area of Nova Scotia or beyond. Switch to Satellite view to see high-resolution aerial photography of Long Lake and surrounding areas, including streets, buildings, parks and waterways.

TOPO MAPS — NEW. Click the green 🔍 Search Maps button below the map to open a second map with a Base map row offering three choices. OSM is the standard OpenStreetMap street map. Topo shows the Canada Base Map from Natural Resources Canada with Toporama contours layered over it — the CanVec topographic data behind the printed NTS sheets, and the mapping used for hiking, hunting, canoe routes and back-country travel. Relief shows shaded relief and hypsometric tints. The search box finds any Canadian town, county or landmark by name, so you are not limited to Long Lake.

Reading the map like a paper NTS sheet. Click Grid to overlay the UTM grid, labelled along the edges exactly as a printed topographic sheet is — at normal zoom the squares are one kilometre across, so you can read a six-figure grid reference by eye and judge distance directly off the map. Click Measure, then tap two points, to get the distance between them together with the grid bearing in degrees and mils, the true bearing, and the magnetic bearing to set on a compass — which matters in Canada, where declination runs from about 20 degrees west in Newfoundland to 20 degrees east in the Yukon.

Click 📍 My position to take a single GPS reading from your device. It marks where you are and reports your position as a UTM/MGRS grid reference as well as plain latitude and longitude — the grid reference being what Canadian search and rescue work from — with a Copy position button so you can paste it straight into a text message. It takes one reading and stops, rather than tracking continuously, to conserve your battery. Note that map tiles need cell coverage, but a GPS reading does not — your coordinates stay correct even where the map itself cannot load.

Map search is available for a limited number of queries per session to manage costs. Be specific — search precisely for best results.

About Long Lake, Nova Scotia

Long Lake is a community in Halifax, Nova Scotia, Canada. It is classified as a small locality. Long Lake is located at 45.0119°N, 62.9677°W.

Long Lake rests in a quiet embrace near the rugged rise of Reid Hill, where the earth holds the cool, dark scent of spruce and damp stone. It lies 32.9 km east-south-east of Stewiacke, NS (from Stewiacke, NS: bearing 115°T), and is situated 14.5 km east-south-east of Middle Musquodoboit. The water sits still and deep, reflecting the shifting moods of the sky as the light catches the surface in thin, silver ribbons before the sun slips behind the distant treeline. A sense of profound solitude defines the shoreline, where the terrain rises and falls in a rhythmic cadence of granite and pine, keeping watch over the stillness that settles upon the basin as the evening air grows sharp. The history of the earth here is heavy with the legacy of extraction, echoing the industrious pulse of the nearby Moose River Gold Mines Provincial Park. While the Moose River runs its course through the landscape seven kilometers away, the local character remains defined by the persistent, grounded labor that once sought fortune beneath the rock. Life moves with a steady, deliberate purpose, far removed from the clamor of the world, while the distant, rushing sound of Little River Falls occasionally carries on the wind from ten kilometers away. Long Lake endures as a quiet witness to this legacy, mirroring the resilient spirit of a land that has seen the earth turned and the gold sought, yet always returns to the hushed, elemental peace of the woods.

About This Long Lake Map Page

Explore Long Lake, Nova Scotia, Canada, with an embedded street and satellite map — switch between views using the small square in the bottom left-hand corner of the map. Coordinates: 45.011933, -62.967702. Live weather conditions and 7-day forecasts — including hourly outlooks — are provided through Open-Meteo, while real-time local and world news feeds help keep the page current. Editorial summaries provide additional local information and context.

Detailed location data for Long Lake includes the postal code (B0S), telephone area code (782, 902). These are among the most commonly searched location details for any Canadian city or town.

Search Maps opens a second, independent map. It searches OpenStreetMap for any Canadian town, county or landmark by name; offers the Canada Base Map with Toporama contours and shaded relief as base layers; overlays a labelled UTM grid so the map can be read like a printed NTS sheet; measures distance and grid, true and magnetic bearings between any two points; and takes a single GPS fix reporting your position as a UTM/MGRS grid reference and as latitude and longitude. Map tiles require cell coverage, but a GPS position does not, so the coordinates remain correct even where the map cannot load.

Location data for Long Lake is sourced from the Canadian Geographical Names Database (CGN), Natural Resources Canada, and verified by coordinates rather than name matching alone. GPS coordinates, province, administrative location and place type are shown in the information panel above.
