Top Things to do During the Summer

Gros Morne Mountain
Gros Morne is the second highest peak on the island of Newfoundland, and one of the most popular hikes. Often capped with clouds, or clothed in fog or snow, the mountain’s mystery is reflected in its name: Gros Morne… big lone mountain.

The Tablelands
In the heart of Gros Morne National Park, Newfoundland, lies an otherworldly landscape that defies expectations and reveals a glimpse into the Earth’s ancient past. The Tablelands, a geological wonder only seen a few places on the planet, showcases a rare phenomenon where a portion of the Earth’s mantle has been thrust up through the crust.

Western Brook Pond
Nestled within the stunning landscapes of Gros Morne National Park in western Newfoundland lies a natural wonder that captivates the hearts of all who visit. Western Brook Pond, a breathtaking fjord, stands as one of the must-see attractions.
Fall
Winter
The scenery is breathtaking, the snow is awe-inspiring, and the activities are truly spectacular; the winter in Gros Morne opens a whole new park to visitors. With activities ranging from snowmobiling, cross-country skiing, and snowshoeing, and for the more adventurous backcountry skiing and snowshoeing, there is something for everyone! And when a good nor’easter storm rolls in, it’s time to sit back, revel in its power and enjoy the show. There are numerous accommodations, along with Parks Canada Camping in Green Point, or two backcountry huts.

Spring
Spring in Gros Morne, the ill-defined season, punctuated by the odd snowfall, longer days, and brighter smiles; the landscape transforms from the wintery frozen white, filling the rivers, waterfalls, and “ponds”, on its way to hues of greens, granite greys, and the Tablelands rusty orange.
Take in Norris Points Trails, Tales, and Tunes (last two weeks of May), or simply watch the Minke Whales play in Bonne Bay. The Park is also ideally located for a visit, if your headed North chasing Icebergs on the Northern Peninsula in St. Anthony (~4 hour drive).
