There are a number of ways to find information about Pictou County and Nova Scotia. One is to browse through the visitor's guides that are published each year.

The Northumberland Shore Visitor and Activity Guide is full of "treasures" that will help the far-away traveller or keep our locals up to date on what is happening inside our County. Pick up a guide at any provincial visitor information centre.
