Discover Newfoundland & Labrador
Together, Newfoundland and Labrador form Canada’s
easternmost province – full of rugged natural beauty, accommodating locals, and
rich pockets of history by way of Viking settlements and ancient fishing
villages.
The provincial capital, St John’s, makes a perfect base for
exploring the southeastern section Newfoundland, including Cape Spear
Lighthouse, Witless Bay Ecological Reserve and Ferryland; while the city itself
hosts ghostly night tours, offers jaw-dropping views from Signal Hill, and a
number of congenial pubs.
Other highlights of Newfoundland and Labrador include Gros
Morne National Park on the Gulf of St Lawrence (for hiking, boat excursions,
rock-climbing, camping and fishing); Iceberg Alley – one of the planet’s best
places to view icebergs; and the historical L'Anse aux Meadows Viking
settlement site.

Gros Morne National Park
Set on the western coast of the Canadian island of
Newfoundland, Gros Morne National Park is the second-largest national park in
Atlantic Canada.
This impressive UNESCO World Heritage Site is known for its
magnificent fjords and dramatic mountains towering above a diverse landscape of
forests, valleys, bogs and beaches. Shaped by colliding continents and grinding
glaciers, the park provides a rare example of the result of continental drift,
where the rocks of the earth's mantle and deep ocean crust lie exposed.
Must-see sights within the park include the Gros Morne, a
majestic peak with a hiking trail overlooking the exquisite Ten Mile Pond Gorge;
and the Brook Pond, a fjord lined with a number of cliffs and waterfalls
St. Johns
Newfoundland’s capital and largest city features brightly
coloured row houses atop a hill overlooking a magnificent natural harbour.
Locals will waste no time telling you it is North America’s oldest city, while
they encourage you to indulge in a pint or a shot of rum in one of George
Street’s pubs.
Head up Signal Hill for jaw-dropping views, take a trail to
the historic fortification at the Queens Battery Barracks, or visit the fishing
village of Quidi Vidi, and the lake nearby that hosts the annual St. John’s
Regatta.
South from the city lie the dramatic cliffs of Cape Spear
(an iceberg viewing and whale-watching spot). Other day trips include Witless
Bay Ecological Reserve and the ever-quaint Ferryland (population 500).
In town, don’t miss a visit to The Rooms, a cultural hub
housing exhibits of culture, historical and artistic significance.
