Top 49 things to do and attractions in Gros Morne National Park

Well worth pulling off the road to enjoy this lighthouse and the trails and views around the hillside. It’s a very photogenic lighthouse that you can capture from many different angles and perspectives. I totally enjoyed it. I did not tour the interior though it was open and available.

A very scenic location and lighthouse perched on side of cliff. Very nice museum to learn history of lighthouse. Very short walk from parking lot. Best views of lighthouse is on left side where there are several little trails to walk out near the water.

The guides are super excited and helpful. The lighthouse is still functional and therefore, restricted to the public. The inside is filled with history about the previous guards and the lighthouse's history. The trails around the lighthouse are well marked, short and easy to do.

What a nice little historical lighthouse. There is a little museum inside and scenic views all around. There are also a few hiking trails that take you to the rocky edge overlooking the water and down to a rocky cove.

Beautiful views of the coast. Lots of trails to explore that lead to unique lookouts. You can climb the rocks and stand right beside the lighthouse. It was really cool to check out after our boat tour through Western Brook Pond!

Lovely trails around the lighthouse! We visited after hours on a weekday, so didn’t go inside.

Really enjoyed my visit. There were 2 park rangers (English and French) and had an interesting chat about the hiatory of the place. Interesting backstory. The last light keepers son (now in his 80s) still visits.

I’ve seen and done a lot of stuff in Newfoundland, but a boat tour of the fjords at Western Brook is in the top 3. Visually stunning. Nothing quite like it. Recommend that everyone do it at least once in their life.

We went on a windy, rainy day. Still gorgeous and the guides did a fantastic job.

Visiting Western Brook Pond was truly a once-in-a-lifetime experience for our family. I went with my wife, our 1+ year-old daughter, and close family friends (with their kids aged 6 and 4). It was a day we’ll always treasure because of the breathtaking views and the joy of exploring nature together. Instead of walking the 3 km trail to the dock, we chose the shuttle service, which was very convenient and family-friendly, especially with young kids. From there, we boarded the 2-hour boat tour operated by BonTours. On our trip, we had the pleasure of meeting Jamie, Brad, and Christopher — the team onboard who made the experience exceptional. A special mention goes to Jamie, whose live commentary was superb; he explained the geology, history, and natural beauty of the fjord while patiently answering every question from curious visitors. The tour itself is absolutely mesmerizing. You float between massive billion-year-old cliffs of the Long Range Mountains, carved out by glaciers thousands of years ago. From above, waterfalls cascade nearly 2000 feet from hidden ponds on the plateau, tumbling into Gros Morne’s largest lake. The scale of the gorge is almost overwhelming — a dramatic reminder of how powerful glaciers once shaped this land. Western Brook Pond is not just a natural wonder, but also a geological treasure. Its diverse rock formations have helped scientists better understand plate tectonics, showing how ancient oceans closed and mountains were formed. It’s no surprise this area has been recognized as a UNESCO World Heritage Site since 1987. For families, this is an unforgettable adventure — safe, manageable, and awe-inspiring. Our kids loved the boat ride, and the adults were completely captivated by the scenery. A must-do when visiting Newfoundland. The combination of stunning landscapes, knowledgeable guides, and the serenity of being surrounded by billion-year-old cliffs makes Western Brook Pond an experience you’ll remember forever. Highly recommended for families, nature lovers, and anyone seeking to witness the true power and beauty of our planet.

Great hike. You can also get a ride for $$. Beautiful views.

We loved this tour! I would say it shouldn’t be missed.

The area is beautiful and a must see. I don’t think any one doing a tour could do a bad job because the surroundings are stunning. I didn’t think the guides on the tour we did were anything special, funny or entertaining but they gave some interesting facts from their script. The queuing was a mess. We got in line early on the off chance we could sit up top. One of the guides came along about 20 minutes before boarding to tell the front of the line something and the line moved to the side. However, when it came to boarding, two lines formed and people who had been way behind us were now in front. It wouldn’t be hard for them to organise this to avoid frustration. It also wouldn’t hurt to make sure people upstairs are making room for others.

Beautiful venue and the fjord is amazing. There is a 3 km walk in from the highway parking lot and it’s an easy walk but a bit dull and a gravel road rather than a scenic hike and be prepared for crazy wind. People line up an hour before boarding time presumably to get the top of the boat. We did not do that but did get an outside seat at the back of the boat which was fine but then be prepared to be hit by waves coming up over the floor and around your feet. The speaker system needs a sound warning just before the guide speaks so others hopefully quiet and listen. The boat Was so packed full that it was very hard to hear the guide. The information shared was great when I heard it. The wind over the water was super strong. In the fjord was lovely. The price was appropriate and the boat house does have washrooms and a bit of a shop for food and souvenirs.

The Tablelands is one of the most extraordinary landscapes we’ve ever seen — unlike anywhere else in Newfoundland, or even Canada. Walking through this otherworldly terrain felt like stepping onto another planet. The landscape is dominated by rust-coloured peridotite rock, pushed up from deep within the Earth’s mantle half a billion years ago. Because the rock is low in nutrients and high in heavy metals, very few plants grow here, giving the place a stark, barren beauty. This is what makes the Tablelands a key site for understanding plate tectonics — proof of how ancient oceans closed and mountains formed. We visited with our family and friends, including young kids, and found the area surprisingly accessible. The Tablelands Trail is well-marked and not too challenging, making it a great spot to explore with children while still being deeply fascinating for adults. Along the way, the contrasting scenery — the orange-brown rocks of the Tablelands against the lush green valleys of Gros Morne — is simply breathtaking. What made our visit even more special was learning that the Tablelands played a role in Gros Morne being designated a UNESCO World Heritage Site in 1987. Standing there, you feel like you’re touching a piece of Earth’s inner secrets. The Tablelands is a must-see when visiting Gros Morne. It’s not just a hike — it’s a walk across the Earth’s mantle, a rare chance to experience the planet’s geological history up close. Perfect for families, photographers, and anyone curious about the story of our planet.

Well worth the visit if you enjoy geology,learning about the earth's mantle ...very unusual scenery..

WHY VISIT? 1)This is the Mecca of Gros Morne National park.lf you don't see this place where earth's mantle lies bare on the crust...you haven't seen this national park. 2)A GEOLOGICAL GEM. 3)Very scenic topography 4) Excellent for photography 5) Good place to see unique vegetation IS THE TRAIL EASY? Mostly flat boardwalk.Easy for all age group. Tips: Visit between 9 am to 12 noon for the best clicks

Beautiful, interesting, and an easy walk. Can be windy.

Easy trail, except to go to the top of the mountains unfortunately I didn't do the difficult trail just the easy one, it took me 1h30 round-trip with magnificent photos taken as souvenirs. The landscapes, the view of the mountains are impressive wow! Also, don't forget to go to Trout River and all the beauty of nature around!

Both the 4km return short trail and the unmarked 14km hike to the top loop trail are amazing. Choose either one based on your mobility and weather condition and you won't regret it! The view is magnificent and the experience is unique. The hike to the top trail is quite dangerous, I'd suggest to have hiking companions and pay attention to the weather. We also found GPS based hiking apps quite useful to locate us on the official unmarked trail (e.g. park Canada app or something like Strava). Be sure to visit discovery center (preferably before the hike), not only it gives a lot of information on Tablelands, it also give the difference in rock composition between other regions of gros morne which we found very informative.

Bring plenty of water as there is no reprieve from the sun. Most of the path is groomed for easy walking, highly recommend venturing off once you hit the end of the path as recommended by their signage. Amazing colours, quite flat and easy walk even if kids/elderly/pregnant.

We came in late May. The hike is very beautiful but very long. A large portion of the hike is spent going down and then up again in a gully with no views. There were some interesting sights after you get pass the boring part, though. The coolest part of the hike is by far the herd of sheep grazing near the end of the trail. There is also a beach to relax for a bit before making the arduous journey back.

Great trail . Hard on knees for people who have weaker knees . It is beautiful and good trail.You got the chance to do a trail that give you the best of both worlds for mountains and sea. it a real gem to see.

Beautiful well maintained trail. About 5km walk from the top to the sea, can be steep for some segment. Plan enough water and time for the return as in the sun it can be hard.

A fair bit of work to get down to the water's edge, but this is where the hike shines. Nice beach walk and views both ways down the coast.

Amazing hike with very rewarding views at the end. They have recently redone the approach to the viewpoint so the trail is in great condition. The trail is a long descent to the ocean with beautiful views. Very rewarding views with the iconic red chairs and stairs to the beach. The incline on the return is steep and continous so make sure to save some energy for the way back.

WOW. Steep hike downhill means a strenuous uphill return, but but so worth it. You will hike through what felt like several mini biotopes as you descend to the beach. Sit at the edge of an oceanside cliff as you contemplate your life decisions that led you to the base of this mountain (that you now have to climb back up). Take the treacherous stairs down to the beach if you dare. Possibly my favorite hike of all time. This should probably be your first hike of the day if you're not used to this level of (uphill) hiking.

If you do one tour in Gros Morne, this is the one. Five stars, spectacular and a fairly easy walk and hike. It is long and rocky, stunningly beautiful. Pack a lunch and enjoy at the beach.

One of the longest and strenuous trails that I have done! The views at the summit are worth the exertion. Personally, I would recommend starting as early in the day as possible, that way you can complete the ascension without the gruelling sunlight. Do carry bug spray among other essentials. They are everywhere and relentless. The ascent was tiring, but the descent was much more painful. Overall, I loved the experience and will HIGHLY recommend it.

Great hike. Beautiful views but the longer you go the more there are. Lots of people. Parking lot was overflowing by noon. Suggest early arrival. Various terrain including very rocky. Big effort for inexperienced to complete. If you are older like me bring your hiking poles. Absolutely no mountain biking.

Beautiful hike. Highly recommend for experienced hikers. You can do a shorter out and back section and still see the waterfall and the view of Gros morne. The entire loop is very challenging with loose rocks during the entire mountain portion. It took us almost 8 hrs to complete the entire thing with fairly limited breaks. It’s 100% worth it but I would not recommend the full loop in wet or foul weather or for those who are not comfortable on unstable footing. I get the sense that the parking fills up quickly but we had no problem at 8AM

Although the summit ealk is closed, you can walk upto the waterfall and to the base of the mountain. About 45mins. The foliage is still largely dormant (or dead)?

Do not underestimate the mountain! The entire trail to the summit is steep, long and rocky, requiring hikers to be tenacious and good at planning. A pair of hiking poles is a must-have to help your knees. We packed a little too much for food, clothes, and a camera on our backs. It took us 9 hours to finish the entire trail (we ate and rested for about an hour at the summit). Looking back, it's all worth it for the variety of views we encountered. It's like the world in Zelda!

If you are doing the summit trail arrive early (7:30-8:30am). You want to avoid the heat and parking fills up later in the day. It is recommended to bring 3L of water per person. We only brought 1L per person and ran out of water at the last 2km back. It was fine. I could have used more water but we didn’t have enough room to carry more. We survived but if I did it again I would say at least bring 2L. The scramble up the mountain is beyond intense. If you have a heavy backpack be prepared it will make the hike harder. Well worth the views.

A difficult hike, not recommended to beginners, reward with a breathtaking view at the summit. The first part of the trail is an easy 4-5km to reach the base of the main ascension, about 1-1.5h. The second part can be a challenging 8km hike. It starts with a steep 500m climb in the first 1.5km. You will need good hiking boots and plainly of water as the climb is on uneven, moving rock and in the sun if it's a sunny day. After the ascension you will walk at the top and it could be windy and cool so it's a good idea to bring a rain jacket to block the wind. The return can be long and taxing on your knees, but the view continues to be worth it. Bring at least 2-3l of water per person and more on sunny day. Plan between 6 and 8h for both hikes, depending on the weather and your knees.

The small trail to the beach side is maintained well. Washroom is clean.

Amazing clean and shallow water beach. The water was warm and refreshing. The beach was not busy.

Lovely beach to visit in Gros Morne National Park. You will enjoy walking all along the beach. It is clean and there's washrooms, playground and lot of parking space. Watching sunrise/sunset is absolutely magic there! 🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟

We camped at Shallow Bay, which was lovely. Beautiful sand beach. Just south of Shallow Bay, there is Cow Head which juts out to the west. There is an absolutely beautiful hike on Cow Head called the lighthouse Trail. Highly recommended. Whoever manages the upkeep of the trail does a great job, they are in excellent condition with good signage and beautiful views.

What a beautiful clean beach! Lovely white sand stretches around the cove and the water was comfortable enough to swim in. Although I only had time to safe. It's worth a stop. They are renovating the building on site but one bathroom is open.

Shallow Bay Beach has long shoreline and it was once considered as Old Mail road. Hiking trail of 3.2 mile loop starts at Shallow bay. This beach was beautiful and there were lot of colourful stones and few sea shells, sea/beach glasses as well. There were Washroom facilities including changing rooms. Shower was there but it was out doors.

This beach is a lovely place to visit in Gros Morne. My children and wife had a blast swimming in the ocean (the water was way too cold for me to get in!), as well as running around in the sand.

BonTour works with the Marine Station and offers a boat tour which including a guided tour of the Marine Station. We purchased tickets on line through BonTour. From the moment we boarded, Bridgette and Simone made us feel welcome with their warm, positive energy and enthusiasm for the marine environment. Their knowledge of the local aquatic species was truly impressive. We learned so much about the marine life in the area. They were engaging, professional, and made the whole tour both educational and fun. It’s clear they’re passionate about what they do, and their excitement was contagious. The station may be small but this package packs a punch for the cost. Great memory maker!

Amazimg location with fun for the whole family if you like marine life or great views. The touch tanks are fun, and I love that the specimens are collected and returned annually.

They had 2 blue lobsters and a 96 year old (estimated) lobster plus lots of other aquatic life. Staff were very informative.

We came for a visit at the end of June. We had the a very positive experience. The timing must have been just right, because we had about three students showing us around the place and telling us all about their facility and their marine animals. The ladies were very knowledgeable and supper friendly. We got to hold some star fish and crabs. Also pretty cool they put all their animals back into the ocean at the end of the season. If you are in the area I would highly recommend.

Neat place to see with lots of cool touch tanks, jelly fish, lobster etc. Some other interesting displays too.

Had a great experience here. The staff are friendly, knowledgeable, and enthusiastic. Lots of really cool marine animals to see and they're all released back into the wild after the season ends.

This Marine Station has a lot of potential to draw a lot of tourist back for a 2nd visit. It has some amazing eye catching sea creatures what most people will never get to see elsewhere. The staff really need to get more training to provide the full potential of what this Marine Station can really be. The staff wasn't very engaged with their visitors which was kind of a disappointment to most of those whole made the long drip to learn more about our ocean life.

100% worth the drive! - Not overly populated - Clean area - Magnificent views - Clean outhouses nearby Tip’s for Visitors: - Be courteous and respectful of those sitting by the rocks and those taking pictures. Take turns. - Wear hiking shoes for uneven rocky beach terrain

My kids loved this place and kept asking if we could go back. They spent a long time hopping between rocks, checking the tidal pools for life, and looking for fossils and interesting rocks.

We stopped of here around evening low tide and golden hour. It was a great time to view the arches. It was t too busy, yet those that were here all seemed to arrive around the same time. If you need to use the rest room, you’ll fin the outhouses in the upper parking lot.

It’s a beautiful area, but if you go before 5/15 all those arches will be covered by snow and do not attempt to go down to the beach, it’s easy down but very difficult to come back if snow is present.

Not wheelchair accessible. If one uses a cane, don't go alone. If one is unstable on their feet, don't go alone. Not a place hurry. Keep an eye on eachother. Stay together to stay safer.

One of my favorite provincial parks in existence. One can spend hours hear, relaxing by the water and appreciating the unique geological formation. The weathered rocks and serene environment make this place truly special. One of my favorites in Newfoundland! A great stop en route to the Labrador ferry!

Great place to enjoy the arch or caves on the gravel beach. It was created by erosion of wind and waves for millenium.

This hike is one of the most beautiful that I have been on. The steep uphill climb is so worth it for what comes next - gorgeous meadows with breathtaking views of the Tablelands and Long Range mountains. As others have said, do take the time to do the full loop at the top - it's the easiest section of the hike, you have already done the hard work, it's beautiful 😍

The trail was recently upgraded, so for comfort on the relatively short hike I went in my well-worn-tread running shoes with no issues whatsoever. No fancy footwear needed. It rained that morning and the gravel trail was relatively dry by the afternoon. A couple puddles to step over. Lovely chairs and benches at the windy top to enjoy the view and chat with people. Stunning reds and yellows in the trees the last bit of September. If you think you may need them…bring poles! Worth it to do the loop at the top counter clockwise.

Moderately intense hike up to the lookout point. Views were stunning from the beginning to end. You get great views of the tablelands, the water and if you're lucky wildlife! Puppy approved and a nice little rest spot at the top to admire the view.

Wonderful hike, challenging uphill with many switch backs but the views make up for it 10 fold. Do yourself a favour and walk the entire loop at the top and finish off sitting in the provided chairs at the peek.

This is a very short hiking trail, which rewards with expansive views of the Gros Morne NP area around the Berry Hill campground. The last part of the hike includes a steep flight of steps, not recommended for people with mobility issues. Otherwise, it is a must when you visit the area.

Trail entrance located in corner of parking lot, had a very steady climb for about 35 mins, terrain not too rough but did have to make a few stops to catch my breath, slightly windy on top, took about 70 mins to apex, spectacular views on the walk and especially at the top, has a path to do loop around the top but we declined, walking back down is easier on the lungs but hard on the knees/feet, well worth the hike for sure. Make sure you poop/pee before starting the hike!

Went early September and this trail was beautiful. Easy to follow with lots of elevation.

Supposed to be an interesting exhibit here but the buildings were all closed up, no signs to indicate when anything might be open.

Amazing!

(Translated by Google) Not a very big place with a few buildings but very interesting to visit. We learn a lot about lobster fishing. Free entry (Original) Endroit pas très grand avec quelques bâtiments mais très intéressant à visiter. On en apprend beaucoup sur la pèche au homard. Entrée gratuite

A cool museum showcasing the various animals of Newfoundland. The museum displays a very impressive taxidermy collection. The museum would be great for kids as there's a scavenger hunt. I would've preferred more information about the various animals, though.

It feels like you’re just peaking into someone’s private collection of taxidermy animals. The information about the wildlife is questionable though not glaringly inaccurate. Not sure I’d recommend visiting unless you are a big hunting enthusiast

This museum was well worth the $8 entry fee. The animals were very cute, we learned a lot and it gave very small town vibes. The ladies at the front were so sweet. My boyfriend really enjoyed the scavenger hunt. You must visit if you are in rocky harbour!!

Very nice when open. Get to know the area.

Best wildlife museum in the province

I enjoyed this. Its really all about seeing the work of a good taxidermist on a wide variety of animals and birds arranged in very nice little tableaux with suitable backgrounds. If you have seen much better examples in national museums then maybe you want to give it a miss but I'd be surprised if anyone interested in wildlife (and OK with taxidermy that according to the information provided did not include any deliberate killing of animals but rather road kills and other accidental occurrences) wouldn't enjoy this. Worth the price of admission in my opinion.

Went with our 8yo granddaughter. She loved answering the quiz questions. We entered through the gift shop and departed through the gift shop.

Amazing to see the unique different landscape and geology of the tablelands ! Very cool hike ! Would recommend to do at sunrise to see during the golden hour light! Nice and moderate without too much elevation.

Easy to find, lots of parking available, trail is relatively flat, very cool view of Earth Mantle on one side and trees/growth on the other, slightly strong breeze along the trail and at the end by the small brook so should have a wind breaker or sweater, some people continued on past the end but terrain is very rough and rocky with no specific path to follow, took about 1.5 hrs out/back, amazing views in all directions. SUGGESTION - nowhere to poop/pee out there so do your bowels and bladder a favour and stop at the Discovery Centre before you head to this trail.

It is an insanely difficult but equally worth it "trail." Only the first mile or so is an actual trail, but after that point, you are meant to create your own path up the valley. Overall, the loop we took l, which is the one on alltrails, was about 8 miles. This was a hard fought 8 miles of rock climbing, etc. Very strenuous activity. However, the views at the top are unmatched. If you are an experienced hiker, I would highly recommend this "trail."

A nice little walk along a well maintained path with lots of interesting information boards. Perfect for killing an hour in the area. Very windy when we went, the wind seems to whip down the hill, but it wasn't dusty, it just required a little extra care to ensure we weren't blown over! Car park was busy but there were still a few spaces going.

Lovely hike for which you clearly need good shoes ! I suggest to look at the itinerary on alltrails if doing the long version of this hike, but do know that you will have cell service while at the top if like us you went there a bit blindly :-/ Do bring a lot of water as there is absolutely no way to escape the sun and it can get pretty hot out there !

I really love this spot. My second time here from Manitoba. This was first on the list of things to do again. A combination of mysterious and peaceful. Can be quite warm, but we had a nice breeze to keep us cool. The trail ends at a viewing platform and small waterfall. The beginning of the trail is gravel pathway and the second half is a solid boardwalk. Hiking boots not required. Some people used trekking poles, but they are unnecessary.

I took the off trail of ~8miles. It was spectacular! I have never had such a unique experience before! Figuring out the path every few metres and making my way all the way to the top (and back) was exhilarating! Sure, there are loose rocks and the way down is not fun, but just the experience and the views (OMG the views), makes this trail worth it!

The trail is about 9km and it took us 2.5 hours to finish. It's almost flat and well maintained. The only problem is the trees blocking the views right in front of the falls. It will be perfect if the rangers could trim the trees a little bit.

Well with the walk for the beautiful falls at the end. The trail could do with a bit of maintenance. Some of the board walks aren't as stable and there's some muddy bits that could do with board walks. The moose exclusion zone was interesting to see the difference in how much they eat locally.

6 km in and out trail with a few view points of the falls. Didn't see any Moose on the walk but we saw some foot prints so if you are lucky you could see some. There's also a small trail to a Moose exclosure where the vegetation is different as Moose are not allowed in the region - you can notice stark difference

Easy hike, about 6 miles round trip. Beautiful meadows and the falls are spectacular. Worth the hike for sure

Great shorter hike. Mostly boardwalk but some mud. Bring bug spray.

Great easy-moderate hike through coastal forests and bogs with the reward of the stunning Baker's Brook Falls at the end. Well worth the effort. Easy parking and well marked trail. Large portions of well maintained boardwalks through the bogs. A quick side visit to the moose enclosure was interesting to see the impact that they have on the landscape.

Amazing hike along the trail. Would highly recommend.

We were blessed to have the guide with flowery tattooes on her arm. She shared her wealth of knowledge while leading us on an hour-long walk on the Tablelands Trail. Actually, it was more of an adventure than a walk as Marcella (sp? I think her name was) was so personable, jovial, lively, full of character, and passionate about her role. We took it all in, learned a ton!

They are very helpful. This location has the Lookout Trail. This trail is listed as a moderate hike however, it is difficult and I have done many hikes before. It is all uphill. It took us 70 minutes to reach the top. It is a very panoramic view. Just breathe taking...

What a great place to hike and learn more about the rocks we live on!! We did the Lookout trail hike first, very steep but totally worth it for the view at the end!!! We even saw a moose in the trees!! Then we did Tablelands walk, stuck our feet in the waterfall to cool down. Missed the guided tour but recommend you download the parks Canada app and listen to the recorded tour as you walk along.

The discovery center had some great exhibitions to help learn about the geology of Gros Morne and about the Mi’kmaq. The park rangers on site are incredibly helpful and informative. The site has a cafe, gift shop and washrooms. We didn’t get here until the second half of our trip, as we started in the north part of the park. But if I went again I would consider starting in the south, as the discovery center is so informative and really lays the ground work to understanding what makes Gros Morne so special. It’s super close to the beginning of the Tablelands hike. There are lots of guided tours and activities happening in the summer - check the schedule if that is something that interests you. Definitely a must see spot in Gros Morne.

Very nice center to educate about the importance of Gros Morne, especially Tablelands. There are few audio visual exhibits and i highly recommend spending few minutes learning about geological importance of this land. There's a café inside. There's also a viewing platform that gives great views of the lake and mountains. Definitely worth a stop on the way to Tablelands

Great place to stop in and learn about the geology of the park and even about Indigenous practices and art. I also stopped in here to refill my water bottles between hikes and their facilities were very clean.

Beautiful space with panoramic views and detailed informational displays. This important UNESCO site is underated, which ion one hand is good because it isn't overcrowded, but it sure deserves many more visitors. We did the tablelands 4 km round-trip hike and were odd at the geology, history, flora, and downright stunning views! @ParksCanada #GoWesternnl #ExploreNL #TMACtravel #tmacnl30

Like stepping back in time. Great view outside. Definitely worth checking out if you are in Norris Point or Rocky Harbour on vacation

Best part is the view from the hilltop, but the museum/gift shop also provides great artifacts of what life was like when things were simpler.

Have 't been inside.... but great view from the grounds

When visiting Rocky harbour in NL, visit this view point not for the museum but for the mesmerising view of the tablelands in the front. Best time to visit: SunRise. Even when u can't see the sun set here as the sets behind the mountain 🏔️,still the dusk makes this point pretty magical.

Great distant views of the harbor from this point. We did not visit the house.

Awesome views and a great experience with homemade preserves for sale.

Nice room. Just need air conditioning

nice

We attended Neddy Norris Night, a performance of local songs, music, stories and tales offered by Gros Morne Theater. The performers were clever and talented, they had good communication with the audience, the selections of material was appropriate for the audience, and the event was good value for money in a modern studio style facility. I recommend attending any performance offered by this Theater Group.

The Supper Club play had us LOFAO. Extremely well written and enacted. After we enjoyed the yummy dinner theater experience, we were blown away again by the Neddy show. Three exceptionally talented musicians performing songs and stories to perfection while using a wide variety of instruments. WOW! We hope to return many more seasons whenever possible.

We saw the performance "Falling Trees". It was very intriguing and intense. We really enjoyed the show. The performers were great. I would have liked to stay around for another show. I highly recommend.

We saw a great show at a marvellous venue. The Irish Descendants did a great show along with a group of local musicians called The Misfits. It was a wonderful evening of fun and music and a highlight of our visit to Newfoundland.

Went to Neddy Norris night in Cow Head - amazing show! Musical talent was amazing, the show was entertaining, couldn’t recomend enough if you’re in the area. The theatre is quite small but the act deserves a bigger space! Hopefully they are able to tour to bigger cities - this would be a hit even in Toronto!

We were luck enough to see "Our Eliza".....we were very excited about the quality, not only of the play, but also of the acting. The three actors created believable, relatable characters, and with only minor costume changes, were able to convey the characters at very different ages. The best theatre we've seen in a long while.

The two performances we attended were marvelous - very entertaining. Customer service during ticket purchases was professional and friendly. The food, drinks and attentive service at the dinner theatre was great. We had a wonderful evening.

Urve Manuel’s “The Glass Station” gallery offers the absolute best Newfoundland fine art, which makes an amazing remembrance of Rocky Harbour and Newfoundland, to take home and enjoy in your house. I bought an adorable line of “glass clothes” to hang on picture wire in my kitchen window. My kitchen is the heart of our home. I am known locally for loving to hang clothes out on my line, so I fell in love with the way Urve could capture the motion of wind in her art. The picture that I am attaching shows my “Clothes Blowing in the Wind” times two. Lots of other gorgeous glass items for sale in her gallery.

Beautiful store with a varied selection of glass work as well as artwork/paintings. Very good prices as well. I didn't want to risk 4 weeks of travelling in my van with two dogs and have one of these potentially broken so I'm going to order one to be delivered when I get home. In one photo you can see the blue glass window hanging that I purchased.

The pieces at The Glass Station are incredible! Check out their fishing hut outside. The attention to detail in all their pieces makes it difficult to choose just one. We purchased several and will cherish them.

The Glass Station was the best fine art shop we found in our 6 weeks traveling around NL! The glass by the owner/artist is stunning and we were just blown away by her talent and the selection. I purchased a green and blue glass 'spruce tree' along with a carved puffin. The owner packed it up beautifully so that the tree made it home in one piece. She was also very friendly and helpful and we enjoyed our chat with her. There were glass items of many iconic Newfoundland 'finds', like the lady slipper and the pitcher plant. There is more than just glass available and the other items available were beautiful too. This area was our first stop and we are so glad we found this shop, I now have two lovely 'souvenirs' of our trip. We are not done seeing NL so we will be back!

Great art shop with a nice coffee inside. The service I received was so fantastic, had to go back twice the same day for some more. They have a lot of locally sourced art, glassware, pottery, jewelry. I highly recommend a visit!

Urve Manuel a stain glass artist that creates absolutely beautiful pieces. Most impressed by her stain glass house displayed on her deck. So impressed that she actually towed it out on a sled on to the ice. Her gallery is wonderful and a must visit .

Beautiful and unique products. Such a variety in prices as well. There will be something here that you like of mostly NL products. The Glass products are spectacular! Come in to see the unique glass hut. Wow the talent!!

Great campground, room for lots of people but all in the woods so it doesn't feel crowded. Great host, good clean facilities, all services that you need. Enjoyed walking around this area too!

We stayed in a tenting site. This campground is excellent. It's crazy clean and it shows. Bathrooms, laundry and sinks for dishes all great. The showers are a little rough but not at all a problem. Firewood is $11 a bundle which is entirely ridiculous... The hiking trail to the falls leaves right from the campground and I highly recommend it. Rocky harbour is a 5 min drive. If you see Walter working the gate there chat to him about things to do! He made our trip 100x better, were lucky to have met him and picked his brain. He is very passionate about the area and the park. We will be back to NL and this campground for sure. Thanks Walter!

Great campground, had some discomforts with the bathrooms needing soap and the had drier would only stay on for sports of 3 seconds at at time. Had issues with the accessible shower door locking.

Very tidy campground centrally located in Gros Morne National Park. Very nice sites that were clean and well maintained. My only complaints are that for a campground that could potentially host 400+ people, having only the single comfort station was inconvenient sometimes due to the high traffic. And really Parks Canada, if you're looking to save $$, maybe find ways other than supplying campers with the cheapest and thinnest toilet paper available.

Quiet campground, decently central facilities, and free wifi, which is good because there is no cell service. Hiking trails right outside the gate.

The location is outstanding! Could use more staff in early season as the one fabulous staff member was overwhelmed by great weather and people! Some sites could use some gravel.

This site exceeded my expectations and the gentleman (who I basically describe as the Bob Ross of the camping world) that was in charge at the gate was one of the nicest and most welcoming people. I have met in a long while. Site was beautiful and actually woodsy. Bathrooms were very clean and had potable water. They even had a kitchen/wash area for dishes. (Again, potable water) Clean sites didn't see garbage. Didn't hear much noise during night and sites were well spaced. Staff went out of their way to make sure we were accommodated properly and knew where things were. 100% recommend. Would stay here again. Hopefully for a lot longer.

The hike is strenuous, and slightly deceiving from what you would expect. The initial climb is approximately 5 kms to the "mountain" base, and once you slog up the rock crawl it's fairly level along the top. The deceiving part (for me at least) is that the decent back to the groomed section of the trail is more taxing than you would expect. This is the second time I've hiked the mountain, and from start to finish it took 4 hours and 43 minutes. I met other groups that were traveling faster, and others that had completed the hike in 8 hours. It's achievable for nearly any skill level; however, it is physically taxing.

Well worth the effort. Beautiful views, seems like it's always windy up top because people have built rock semi-circles to get out of the wind.

Good trail to hike. Awesome views. Worth hike it. But definitely not for beginners. Be prepared. Dont forget to bring water and food for full day. It can be maintained better. At some ways there are no signs for the path. and also some trails are not maintained in good condition. So be careful to choose the paths.

This hike was not easy but is absolutley breathtaking make sure to bring 2+ litters of water , warm clothes and lots of food and proper footwear

Great hike. Beautiful, Picturesque. Be prepared with proper shoes, clothes (the weather was unpredictable) food and water. It was a long hike.

The hardest trail, we use 12 hours to finish it. One of the most beautiful places I have been.

Really nice trail with amazing views. The climb is worth it. Well maintain trails, but toilet on the trail are not compare to the ones in the parking. Might be tough for less fit person. I recommand to have water/filter and snack to be well prepare. To us 6hrs of walk.

This was a fantastic high quality meal. The fish was incredibly fresh and cooked to perfection, same with the sides. It was filling, great portion size. I wish I had more it was truly amazing. The décor was so nice, loved learning the history of the restaurant and the staff were very kind!

We had scallops and fish cakes. The fish chowder was delicious. I had a partridgeberry cocktail. Service was exceptional. Small independently owned business on the water. Ocean view tables. They have music starting mid June.

Great people here making your visit an exceptional and memorable one. Seaside location with a view. Had seafood chowder and fresh baked bun for lunch. Good brew selection. Highly recommended.

A nice seafood restaurant who’s been there for 46 years! Service was fast and efficient and the food was ok. I just found it overpriced: 36$ for the scallops signature dish: the scallops were slightly overcooked, sided with basic rice, one broccoli stem and a few carrots. Fortunately, the garlic sauce with peppers was very good! I feel like the family business running up for decades is taking advantage of the tourists’ money.

Incredible location and food! Close drive from the Tavlelands and Green Gardens trails. The fish sandwich was the best I have had in newfoundland. Love the history too! Cant wait to come back. Highly recommend.

Yeah in this little corner of world sits a restaurant being managed now in the third generation. Get to Trout River through Corner Brook. Wonderful people and hearty food. This soup was light but warmed up the cockles, served with sandwiches like grandma made.

Something for everyone. Great food served professionally in a local hospitality setting. Pea Soup, Salmon, Scallops & “Bake Apple” cheesecake. All delicious! Just go already!

Ate here both outside and inside outside was definitely better because of the view of the water directly staring into a sunset. Staff was amazing ann was a hoot and a half the lady with the dark hair was also a good time. They even got up and danced when the band was playing.

there’s a great view on the patio and there is live music inside the bar! Always call ahead to reserve because busy seasons they might not have enough seats for everyone! You would think that newfies don’t know how to poutine but their sauce and fries was actually great! The curds is missing some squeak though ;)

We were looking for an old fashioned kitchen party and seen the ad for one at The Anchor Pub. We knew it wasn't exactly what we were looking for but we were hopeful it would be fun with good traditional music. If you are looking for mediocre karaoke with the occasional Maritimes tune thrown in then this is your place. I believe I heard the performer say he had been doing this for 19 years... I'm not sure how. He had a guitar but I think it was purely ornamental as he relied heavily on alot of background music. We stayed for about an hour to give the show a chance and our spirits lifted when they brought out traditional instruments like Ugly Sticks etc. That was shortlived as he followed one traditional Maritime song with Sweet Caroline and a Johnny Cash medley. Our night ended when he decided to play House of the Rising Sun... we had had enough. The point of my rant is... advertise this as a "live" karaoke music show. When you call it a Kitchen Party I, at least, have traditional music expectations and they were not even close to being met. SUPPORT LIVE MUSIC

This was our experience without seeing a show. The place was half full with multiple tour bus groups having reserved seating. Which the servers gave all the priority to. Took around 15min just to get a server to our table. They boasted a new menu and said all their food was getting rave reviews. My wife ordered the chicken linguine and I ordered the steak sandwich. Drinks were good, but the food was very lackluster. The linguine had very little flavor to it, and the steak sandwich was 90% bread with the equivalent of a single deli slice of beef for the steak. Also very little flavor even after putting gravy on it.

If I could give this zero stars I would. We left hungry and disappointed. The patio and atmosphere was lovely, but our server got us drinks then forgot we existed. Never took our food order. We gave up after an hour waiting for her to come back. She walked past us so many times and didn’t look at us while we tried to get her attention. We had to go up to her while she was clearing a table nobody was waiting for to ask for our bill. At this point we didn’t have time to get in anywhere else. Most tables on the patio were staring off into space and waiting long periods for her to come back, but she only had 5 tables. If she’s new I feel awful, but if that’s the case she needs some support.

I understand if ur busy but we waited to be seated for 15 minutes while staff walked by us several times ignoring us. I mean at least let us know you'll be with us shortly or something. Eventually went up to a waitress who was looking right past but ignoring us, to ask if we could seat ourselves. She said yes so we sat down, waited another 15-20 minutes multiple waitresses walked by as if we weren't there. Eventually went to a restaurant next door that was twice as busy, took our order within 5 minutes. Would recommend going elsewhere if you don't have 3-4 hours to eat.

We attended the anchors aweigh show and had a thoroughly enjoyable time. A pretty decent selection of bottled and tap beers and a waitstaff that was extremely friendly attentive and made a pleasant night even more memorable. We did not eat, but the other tables around us did and all of the food looked quite delicious. I can’t say enough about the show itself, it was great! Excellent musicians and music interspersed with witty banter. And again, all of the waitresses were top-notch

We did the Long Range Traverse with Matt and Qasim. Being from Winnipeg…. We trained as much as possible. On our first day, halfway up the ascent my wife’s hiking boots catastrophically failed. We were screwed. The owner, Robbie, RAN… UP… THE…MOUNTAIN and delivered his wife’s boots to us. Ten fold above and beyond regular service. Our guides were fantastic and the food was excellent. The traverse was difficult but an amazing trip!

Flipping Awesome! Oh my gosh we had so much fun! We are 58 & 59 and we did the Zodiac Tour. It was windy of course, and we were whipping over the waves. Hold on tight. Loved every second of it. These are just 5 of the many pictures I took on their tour. Luca was a summer student with the tour, he was so dang cute! Very knowledgeable in the history, about the Fjords and the rock formations. Just a sweetheart, someone to bring home to meet dad😍. Lol

An amazing 5 days. Our guides were first rate and also knew a great deal of the geology. The accommodations were excellent. The hikes and other tours were all fantastic as was the food, both at the base camp, the prepared lunches and at the local restaurants. A first rate experience! The owners are just wonderful people and so is everyone who works with them.

Today we did a 2-hour guided kayak tour around Bonne Bay. This was our very first kayaking experience and being in the ocean, it was quite intimidating. Our tour guide Emily was excellent; so friendly and knowledgeable about the area and made us feel more at ease despite rough conditions at times. The other staff were great as well with instructions and providing our gear. The only reason for 4 stars instead of 5 is that we were not notified that the dry bags were an extra cost until after we had paid for our tour and were ready to get in our kayak; we thought this was included in the tour cost. Other than that, it was an excellent tour and first kayaking experience!

Highly recommend Gros Morne Adventures for both kayaking or private zodiac tour of Gros Morne and Norris Point. The crew were knowledgeable and accommodating to all our needs. We split our group into 3 double kayaks and a zodiac to catering to everyone’s level of adventure. We learned so much about the history and geology of the area and absorbed the natural beauty of the area. I highly recommended this trip.

We thoroughly our 3 Day Gems of Gros Morne tour. We loved hiking and learning about the geology of theTablelands, spending time in Woody Point and exploring Western Brook and Gros Morne North. Luna was a superb tour guide, full of energy, fun, passion and an incredible amount of knowledge in addition to be an expert hiker and athlete. The boat tour in the ancient fjords was breathtaking and led by an energetic, fun crew filled with knowledge and history of the area. It was a joy to spend an afternoon with Keith learning about Indigenous culture and history and making a fire from flint and then enjoying delicious bannock, moose meat and capelin over the fire. We loved our morning of sea kayaking in Bonnie Bay with 2 excellent, friendly and very knowledgeable guides. Robbie and Kristen and the whole Gros Morne team were friendly, welcoming and very well-organized. We stayed in a beautiful, modern, spotless cabin in Norse Point organized by Gros Morne Adventures with a lovely porch and breathtaking views to wake up to each morning. Highly recommend. You will love every minute. Thanks so much for a unforgettable adventure, Sandra and Rob, Toronto, ON

We rented kayaks for a couple of hours. Staff were friendly and helpful considering it was our family’s first time using sea kayaks. The kids got to swim off the dock. It was a great time and their coffee is fantastic!

Our favourite hike of the Gros Morne trails. 14km round trip (4-5 hours) with gorgeous views, lots of frogs! and you are sandwiched by the pond and the Tablelands. The trail provides magnificent views of the "Narrows" where two ponds meet. Recommend lots of water and sunscreen as there is a small portion of canopy to provide coverage.

My dog Juni and I hiked the trail this morning and it is a gem. There’s initially a long set of steps to climb to reach the plateau but then it’s just lightly rolling inclines out to the point and it provides some pretty incredible views of Trout River and the overall cove. I was amazed with the rocky cliffs and I strong recommend this trail.

Would give a 5 stars if I can finish the trail. The trail location is great - beautiful view of Trout River village and the sunset. But the trail is not well maintained. Part of it through the woods filled with swamp waters so we were not able to get through to finish the trail.

The entrance is on a private property which I found ambarrassing and made be believe that I would be disappointed. I was wrong. On top of the cliff I met a pack of friendly sheep. The hike provided a ton of scenic views. Worth it!

Our family did this trail today and it was spectacular! Easy hiking, amazing ocean views, and lots of little offshoots for our kids to explore. The steps at the start are pretty mild. We’d highly recommend this trail!

Nice trail. Great views of the water and back towards town. Starts with 137 steps that are in ok shape. Then about 1.2 km out to the point. Easy. No counting other than the steps.

Steep stairs at start but worth the climb, views are fantastic!

IYKYK. One of the most scenic and easy-to-do trails. Great for sunset.

What a perfect day! The morning started with a heck of a lot of snow ❄️ and turned into all three seasons! Trina was wonderful and knowledgeable and an incredible guide! Yes we were in Rocky Harbour in April and we loved it. We learned about the lands and stories of her family and roots. Lite a fire in the cabin using a flint, we ate, we sang, we just had the best time! Plus the vehicle was incredible! Thank you so much Under the Stump! We will definitely be back

Trina screeched my husband and myself in on June 2, 2025 and oh my goodness what a hoot! We absolutely loved her and had so much fun, highly recommend her!! It was amazing because it was short notice (our family met her on the plane we were taking to NFL) and yet she packed her whole tickle trunk and blew us away! We are only in NFL for 10 days but what a way to start the trip off! Definitely will be back and hope to see her at more family events!

Trina is an absolute delight and I am so glad we did this tour. One of the true highlights of our gals’ trip to NFLD. We did the Eastern Arm tour on a foggy, rainy morning but this did not get in our way of thoroughly enjoying 2 hours on back country trails with Trina in her off road vehicle. One of our group was pregnant and it felt totally safe and comfortable. Trina is full of interesting information about the land, the local history and culture, the Park, and the ways that a focus on sustainability and accessibility can make tourism a positive thing. Keep your eyes peeled because we did see one shy moose hidden in the trees!

Trina was knowledgeable and very entertaining for my family of 5. Unfortunately we did not see a moose but Trina brought us to this beautiful field with wild blueberries and other berries where my kids loved to pick and eat. She made the tour enjoyable and my kids love riding in the UTV splashing the puddles. Thank you Trina!

This was an amazing winter expedition! Made so much unforgettable memories from it. Our 3 kids (8-9-11) were amazed and had a blast. My heart is so full from seeing their smile and brilliant eyes. Trina was an extraordinary host. I highly recommend to book with under the stump for a real New Foundland experience.

We had a wonderful tour with Trina, so knowledgeable and friendly. Great sense of humour . Would recommend taking this tour when in Rocky Harbour.

Had a wonderful experience with Trina doing the 2 hour Eastern arm look about ATV tour. She is extremely kind, knowledgeable and friendly. It was so clear she cared about providing a good experience for us. It was nice to learn about Indigenous culture and traditions. Seems like a fun activity rain or shine! We got lucky as we booked last minute and she was able to accommodate us for the same day. Thank you Trina!

Getting the much needed face-lift. You may still people working on the building but the facilities are really nice so far. Great washroom facilities inside. Various information boards outside and inside the building. Staff were very friendly and provided all the information we needef

One of the best visitor centers. Very scenic outside views and beautifully explained exhibits inside. Great facilities. The gift shop is amazing. Spent a good 2 hours at this visitor center reading about the history and admiring the surroundings.

Gros Morne NP is a true Canadian treasure! Despite the fact that we were here a bit before the tourist season kicks in we had a wonderful but clearly chilly experience(mid May). Don't miss the Tableland Trail(easy 6k) and Green Garden Trail(moderate to straining 9k). We tent camped at Green Point Campground. Right on the water. What a sunset!

This is a beautiful visitor's centre for Gros Morne. The detailed information inside is very interesting and helpful when learning more about the park and the local area. There is a small gift shop inside too. They have wifi in the building as well, which is good considering how fickle cell reception is in the area.

Ev charging free. Hiked for about three hours on a cool May day. It was still a good hiking experience around the lake aream

Amazing views on the Approach trail. Hope to return and do the Summet trail when it's open again!

Clean, spacious, modern visitor centre. The bilingual staff was very helpful and patient. There were two at the moment and they handled all the visitor questions efficiently. The building is architecturally beautiful, in form and materials. Inside, the furniture was just as modern and beautiful. Even the colours were muted green and neutrals to reflect the nature outside. A long bentwood bench made a statement, facing the banners advertising all thee activities you can do. The washrooms were super clean and the faucet was also modern with the water and soap in one piece. Much like the Dyson in many public washrooms, but this one looked better.

Say what you will about smaller airports but personally, I prefer them. My 8th time here. Security has never taken more than 5 minutes. Not a whole lot of amenities/stores, but it does have all of the basics. Rental parking is very close to the terminal. There are only 3 gates so the waiting area is small. Staff are always friendly.

Awesome experience at Deer lake airport. Got to love these small airports with friendly people, respect and everything we need. From parking availability, to very welcoming people (car rental, security, plane companies etc), such a pleasant place to be ! Security is on top as well, while friendly, I think I triggered all the possible detectors with my semi metallic belt :) , yet, they handled it with respect and professionalism as well.

For a smaller airport I would say they are doing a great job. Have never had a problem and the staff is always more than helpful. big up on the Robin's now after you pass through security.

Great regional airport, nice and clean. Easy access!

This is the most poorly organized airport I’ve ever been in. The people here are great but it’s so busy that you need to wait for an hour to drop bags. There are no self serve bag drop stations. This place needs to be bigger with a lot more staff. It’s so loud that you cannot hear any announcements. Everyone shows up 2-1/2 bouts early to make the flight because it is known that it takes that long to get through the crowd. Often times people that are scheduled later are ahead of you in the line which slows things down even more. I do all I can to avoid this place.

Small airport, easy to locate off highway, plenty of parking, easy to rent/return cars, inside has gift shop and info centre, multiple car rental stations, place to eat and and a gift shop, inside gate area has vending machines that need cash.

It's hard to give this tiny airport a bad review. I mean it's not 5 stars but I've never had a bad experience here either. Staff are friendly and helpful. There's a cafe, convenience store, water fountain and the bathroom facilities are clean. Tons of seating with places to plug in. Parking is available and I've never seen it crowded so getting in and out is fast.

Went on the Western Brook Pond day hike and our guide was Garry. Right from the start it was well organized, safe and on time. During the challenging parts of the hike we were advised how to safely hike up and down the valley. Much of the hike involves balancing from rock to rock and climbing through roots/mud and everything else. Garry was very informative on all flora/fauna and history of the Western Brook Pond. We felt very supported during the entire day. This is one day that I will never be able to forget!

We had the absolute best time on our Western Brooke Pond hike - perfect weather and honestly the best guide I’ve ever had on a guided hike. Our guide Garry had such a bright spirit and vibe, he made the whole hike, there and back, really fun for our group. I learnt A LOT about the geology, plants, animals, LICHENS of the area and greater Newfoundland too. And to top it off he took the most insane photos of us at the lookout point. One of my favourite hikes ever and I would highly recommend going to the top of the Brooke with Out East. Worth the price and more, hands down. You just gotta book it!

I went on the western brook pond hike, with Gary and Mikayla(spelling?). It was an amazing experience. Gary was a very knowledgeable and high energy guide. It was quite an experience getting to see him hike the same trail as the group while simultaneously spouting out plant/animal facts, as well as scouting for moose. He seemed to know every foothold to use, every root to grab, and every rock to avoid stepping on. He did everything in his power to make it a great hike and to get everyone there and back safely. Mikayla (Spelling?), our other guide, was excellent at guiding people through tough spots and showing everyone the proper path. She was also full of factoids regarding the area's plants, lichen, and animals. The hike itself was the toughest I've ever done, it was truly a challenge and I advise anyone reading this review to prepare physically more than I did. With the right mix of physical ability, and mental toughness, you can get to the top and see a truly amazing view. 20/10 experience

Absolutely gorgeous hostel! Out East Adventure Hostel feels newly renovated and incredibly well thought out. The beds were super cozy and set up for privacy, which I really appreciated. Each one came with its own fan, nightlight, and a power station with both USB and traditional plug options—such thoughtful touches. The rooms were spacious, the showers were amazing, and everything was spotlessly clean. The open layout created a true communal feel, which made it easy to meet fellow travelers from around the world. I ended up going on adventures with new friends I met right there at the hostel—exactly the kind of experience you hope for when staying at a place like this. Another huge bonus: you can book guided tours right through the hostel, and they even have a fully stocked outdoor store on site. The boot drying unit was a small detail, but after a rainy hike, it made a big difference. This place absolutely nailed it. Clean, comfortable, friendly, and adventure-ready—I highly recommend it!

I did the western brook hike with Gary and it was an incredible experience! Gary was very knowledgeable and shared all about Newfoundland’s beautiful plants and animals throughout the hike. He set a good pace for the experience level of the group and kept safety as a priority. He also took some really great photos of everyone at the top! We saw also got to see a moose :). I really enjoyed this hike - very worth the money - and so thankful we had Gary as our guide!

Convenient and affordable with all functional facilities, Friendly hosts. We even cooked lobster meals after checking out😋 The West Brook Pond day hiking tour was awesome! Timing and trail access were well organized by great people. Our guides Gary, Nate, Makayla and Adam were extremely helpful in making the hike an enjoyable experience. Gary is very knowledgeable on the area’s geological features, flora and fauna, outdoor safety, photography, etc.. We all came back home with unforgettable memories and breathtaking pictures. Thanks to Gary’s great and funny pose suggestions!

Went on the Western Brook Day Hike tour with Gary and Aiden and had one of the most amazing tours I’ve ever been on. First of all the hike is TOP TIER. I’ve hiked all over Alberta, Europe and Asia and you won’t see a view like this anywhere else. It’s something special! It’s a once in a lifetime tour. You must do this at least once in your life. Second of all Gary and Aiden - our guides were extremely passionate and loved their jobs which really showed. They are very safe and adjust to the speed of the group. This is in my opinion, the most important aspect of an adventure activity. No one should get hurt and even if it took a little longer, they made sure everyone made it home safely and uninjured. I really appreciated there attention to that. I would highly recommend requesting them for your guide if you are worried about the hike in any aspect. In addition, I really appreciated their insight and breaks to talk about plant life, animal life and the history of the Indigenous peoples (such as the Beothuk) of the island. Gary especially did an outstanding job acknowledging that most of his knowledge was learned from the Mi'kmaq. Lastly, as a bonus, both guides were amazing photographers and helped the entire group take amazing photographs. Overall, an absolutely amazing tour and something that everyone should do. Highly recommend Gary and Aiden if you get the chance!

Probably the nicest campground I’ve been to. Very private, not too many sites. Private bathrooms and showers, nice kitchen area. Our campsite smelled like Christmas trees 😍

Another great campground from parks Canada. Lady was very friendly and helpful. Lots were clean and good size. Bathrooms are modern and very clean. Nice hot showers were welcomed with the cold spell we were having. Many good trails within a few kilometres from the park. Green Garden and Tableland are a must with Green Garden being the toughest one of the two. Please make you way to the little restaurant at the village, you will not regret it.

Wonderful and knowledgeable park staff! Facilities were new and clean! Firewood sold at front gate. Sites were good sized with fire pits and picnic table.

We've been really impressed with Parks Canada campgrounds and Trout River did not disappoint when we visited in July. Good location for getting to hikes and park programs in South part of the park. Loved the evening campfire with Marcella learning about her Mi'kmaq culture. Don't miss it! Tablelands tour also very informative!

The campsite is currently under renovations so the trailer that they are using for showers and bathrooms is not as nice. It's clean, but the showers were cold in the morning because of high traffic. The wood was very wet, so that made a fire difficult. That said, the campsite was gorgeous, the staff was incredible and so accommodating, and the views are absolutely worth every minor inconvenience. If you get the opportunity, the tablelands hike is breathtaking and not at all difficult. It's really close to trout river campground. Highly recommend!

The views here are beautiful... Very knowledgeable and kind staff. Up-to-date, new kitchenette ,showers, bathrooms....

Every campspot is intimate, exactly what a camper wishes. Dont hesitate to book here.

Green Point is a geological treasure trove, offering a unique opportunity to explore half a billion years of Earth's history. This unassuming site on Newfoundland's west coast holds immense scientific significance, having been designated as the Global Boundary Stratotype Section and Point (GSSP) for the Cambrian-Ordovician boundary. A short walk from the parking lot leads to a series of layered rocks that tell a story of ancient oceans and evolving life. Fossils of trilobites and graptolites are embedded within these rocks, providing tangible evidence of life forms that existed millions of years ago. The contrast between the soft, layered rocks and the rugged coastal landscape is both striking and thought-provoking. The site is remarkably dog-friendly, allowing visitors to share this extraordinary experience with their furry companions. As you explore the area, keep an eye out for the iconic red Parks Canada chairs, offering a perfect spot to relax and contemplate the immensity of time. While there's no formal hiking trail, the area invites exploration. The short distance from the parking lot to the cliffs makes it accessible to visitors of all ages and fitness levels. However, caution should be exercised when exploring the rocky shoreline, as the terrain can be uneven. Green Point is a place where science meets nature in a truly awe-inspiring way. It's a must-visit for anyone interested in geology, history, or simply the beauty of the natural world.

Another unique and amazing place different from the other locations in Gros Morne. This one sometimes gets missed with the other locations being higher profile, but this place should not be missed, especially if you like rocks, geohistory, and tidepools. At low tide it is easy to walk way out to the point, but the seaweed can be slippery. Lots of cool things like crabs, hermit crabs, and shrimp, in the tide pools if you just sit still and watch for a minute. Great views from up top, but it is not difficult to get down. There is also an easy road to walk that you pass on the way to the parking lot that leads to some fishing shacks and the beach. You can see the location from Green Point campground beach. More information about the location is at the visitor centre in Woody Point.

Words cannot describe or begin to define what is Gros Morne. See pictures.

A great place to stop and explore. Especially if you are a geology buff.

Green Point Campground in Gros Morne National Park is a gem for campers seeking a serene and picturesque retreat. Nestled along the rugged coastline of Newfoundland, this campground offers a perfect blend of natural beauty and peaceful solitude.

One of the better National Parks and worth the drive.

Peaceful, picturesque, beautiful place.

Great venue with good acoustics. Saw Tim Baker and band, loved it. Big sound in a smaller venue. Bathrooms clean and accessible, bar upstairs decent stock. It was a warm night with no a/c, but still very enjoyable.

I don't think there is enough money in the world to pay for the brilliant performance, with brilliant musicians, that was held here tonight. Anchored by Louis and Rosemary, the talent on the stage tonight would be the envy of any in New York, London and Paris...to name only a few. Weren't we the lucky audience.

A beautiful building. It's spacious and really cool & comfortable for Writers Retreat events, even on a hot August afternoon. Can't wait to return.

Magical moments take place in this building.

Very cozy setting.

Was here during the Writers at Woody Point Festival. Such a great venue.

Great venue in a magical place!

Nice little hike. If you go, do the little off shoot hike to spring beech. Not sure why they call it a beech but the rock formation is outstanding.

Nice little (tiny actually) lighthouse that is found after a little hike from a car park. The hike itself is really easy, along a well maintained path with stairs, etc. Walk to the lighthouse itself is about 10 or so minutes from the car park, but I really recommend pressing on to the Point of the Head, which is quite stunning. Path along the way passes in some of the densest small trees growth I have seen.

Views well worth the visit! - Short hike, beginner elevation - Great trails surrounding the lighthouse. Information boards with great insights on the history of the lighthouse. - Amazing look-outs - Hiking shoes recommended. There are stairs with handles. *Please respect the nature and wildlife by not littering and staying within boundaries to avoid trampling the plants*

Beautiful shore trail. The lighthouse was very nicely done and the guide working inside the lighthouse was very informative and interesting. Overall a great place to explore inside and out.

An ok hike, short and easy, but the lighthouse is very very short and you don’t get much viewpoint.

A short hike up a well marked trail will bring you to the old iron lighthouse. Passable with a stroller but perhaps not the easiest trip to do with an infant. Signage was good, and informative.

Great views on the hike up but not for anyone in need of knee replacements!!

A cute little scenic spot. Nice area for a break.

Magnificent views from a cliff that houses the Woody Point Lighthouse! - Small little path to walk around nearby - A great look-out point to witness potential marine animals in the water or view local birds. The waters are very active so bring binoculars and keep a lookout for fins breaking the surface! Area’s for Improvement: - Some caution signs or fencing should be added near the cliff. A very long way down, with potential eroding soil.

A peaceful nook at the side of woody point town centre. Visit for: 1) Amazing 😍 scenic beauty 2) Chk the town lighthouse 3) Seep in the peace nature can offer

Beautiful harbour, lighthouse and the surrounding.

Great spot for views of the inlet. Also can see whales here.

Quainte little village with great local atrisians and restraunts, and of course the lighthouse.

First stop in the park and we saw Gros morne mountain one side, tablelands on the other. Well worth it.

The Dr. Henry N. Payne Museum is a must-see in Cow Head. From dramatic tales like the Double Axe Murders to rich displays of women’s everyday lives, it offers a vivid glimpse into Newfoundland’s history and culture. Friendly, welcoming, and full of stories you won’t find anywhere else.

I was there for work. The museum is doing renovation, and it's going to be amazing when it reopens.

We had a quick visit as we arrived before closing. It was our only chance in a very intense schedule but it was very informative. The exhibits are well organized and curated. Books, postcards, gifts and hand made crafts from woodwork including hand-turned spurtles, shadow-boxes, handwork including quilts sewing, knitting and jewelry. Well worth a visit.

I especially appreciated the recognition of women and their contributions to life in an often harsh environment. The walrus skull and information about the history of the area was as very well presented. And finally but not least, the gift shop and friendly staff topped off an enjoyable visit to Cow Head.

Well run, well staffed. We got there in time for a garden party with ladies in hats, cookies and tea, all for the price of a donation. Interesting exhibits including the weapon from a double axe murder!

What an amazing place. It made me feel like I was stepping into my grandmother's house all over again. Excellent artifacts, so much information about the area and very knowledgeable staff. And the crafts for sale are actually handmade, not cheep souvenirs. Great spot.

This Place Was AN Amazing Stop When I Visited. I Used The Double Axe Murder Information Here To Make A Haritage Fair Project On The Subject. I Also Bought a Book Here! Would Highly Recommend This To Anyone Passing Through The Area And Has Some Free Time.

The stairs and the trail are in need of maintenance. The view from the lighthouse is lovely but the lighthouse itself is not. If the trail continues from the lighthouse to the Old Man directly I missed it. The Eastern Point trail on the other side of the town is much better.

Overgrown and worn but still worth the time. It provides great views of Trout River and of the cove. The “lighthouse” is just a metal framed structure but, again, it’s worth the time.

Beautiful

(Translated by Google) Nice little hike to do with children. Gives access to a beautiful view of the cliffs and the village of Trout River. Very quiet!!! (Original) Belle petite randonnée à faire avec des enfants. Donne accès à un beau point de vue sur les falaises et le village de Trout River. Très tranquil !!!

Wow, hidden gem for those seeking a reward at the end.

Muddy, buggy, and slippery, not worth it.

A very beautiful gallery ! Miranda Reid is an incredible artist that lovingly displays her art for all to see. You will have a hard time walking out of her gallery without a Traditions by Miranda fine piece of art .I know that we are taking back a treasure to Ontario that we will always cherish.

Resin Art work from a local artist. This art is a whole new level of art. Using Glass & Sand to make amazing art work will blow you away. Also Under the Stump designed by Scott offers an amazing selection of local candles & soap designs. Make sure to add this gallary to your agenda while visiting Gros Morne National Park area.

Such a beautiful gallery full of unique and one of a kind pieces. I loved it so much I went twice on my recent trip across Newfoundland.

Beautiful artwork using different mediums. Miranda and her mom are wonderful.

Stunning. I highly recommend a visit

AMAZING!! Absolutely beautiful and a wide selection.

Tacky and crazy overpriced.

Nice little rink. Cold but most rinks are. Food is great.

Very clean, great food, amazing ice! One of the best small town arenas on the island.

Great place to hold events
