Overview

We've selected the top day hikes in Gros Morne National Park and combined them with delicious Newfoundland cuisine, comfortable lodging, experienced local guides, and some cultural flair. Walk atop the earth's exposed mantle on a rocky Tablelands hike; along the coast and through lush landscapes of the Green Gardens; to spectacular views atop the Lookout Hills, and up to the summit of Gros Morne Mountain. After each solid day of hard hiking, enjoy a hearty dinner and a soft sleep. And, how could we leave out the classic scenery of Western Brook Pond Fjord? The included boat tour takes you into the heart of the glacier-carved, land-locked fjord, past billion-year-old cliffs, and dramatic 2000-foot waterfalls. You'll quickly discover why you need to spend at least a week in this spectacular park!

Itinerary

Expand all | Collapse all

Welcome to Gros Morne! You will be met at the Deer Lake Airport today and transferred to your accommodation on the north side of the park via the stunning 'Viking Trail' highway which provides your first glimpse of Gros Morne's dramatic coastal landscapes. After about an hour, we arrive at the pretty seaside village of Woody Point and settle into your simple but comfortable accommodations which will be home for the next six nights. The group will meet around 6:30pm for an evening orientation and dinner (exact time and location will be indicated on your final documents).

Meals: D

Your day begins with a short drive to the looming Tablelands. This barren mars-like landscape of mantle rock that once lay beneath the earths crust is one of the main reasons why Gros Morne National Park is a UNESCO World Heritage Site. Our hike takes us by numerous waterfalls as we reach the summit the mountain at 700m. From here, we are greeted with panoramic views of Winterhouse Brook Canyon, Bonne Bay, and the Long Range Mountains. Hiking: Approximately 7 hours over rocky and exposed terrain

Meals: B,L,D

After breakfast, we catch a water shuttle ride to the Norris Point waterfront across picturesque Bonne Bay from Woody Point before heading over to the Gros Morne Mountain trailhead, just outside of Rocky Harbour. This challenging hike leads to the Arctic alpine of the Long Range Mountains where moose and rock ptarmigan find a home in the rugged, barren terrain. The summit of Gros Morne Mountain is the highest point in the national park at 806 meters, offering spectacular views over the glacier-carved fjords of Bonne Bay and Ten Mile Pond. Hiking: 7 - 8 hours over rocky exposed terrain

Meals: B,L,D

Today we take it easy with a boat tour, easy walks, and some sightseeing. En route to the fjord, we will stop at Lobster Cove Head Lighthouse to learn about the local history of the area. Next we walk through time at the Green Point geological site, discovering fossils at our feet. We then take the easy walk across coastal lowlands and boardwalk-covered bogs and barrens to the wharf at Western Brook Pond fjord. Lunch is served overlooking 2000ft cliffs of granite before our boat tour takes us 16km into the heart of this scene, where we watch spectacular waterfalls tumble from the alpine plateau. After the boat tour, we head over to Broom Point to learn about the fishing history in coastal NL from a local fisherman.

Meals: B,L,D

We start the day at the Green Gardens trailhead. This trail is one of the most diverse and magical hikes in the park. The route descends from the earth's mantle of the Tablelands, traverses Arctic alpine rock gardens, and continues down into the boreal forest valley featuring some of the oldest and largest trees in the park. At the coast, we explore the grassy meadows, rock pillars, ancient volcanic sea-stacks and rugged cliffs left behind from an ancient volcanic island. We say hi to the resident sheep who seem to defy gravity on the hillsides, and head to the shoreline to find hidden waterfalls and sea caves. Hiking: Approx 5 hours over varied, undulating terrain

Meals: B,L,D

We start our walk through town on the south side of Gros Morne National Park from Woody Point and up Hillside Trail. The uphill climb is soft underfoot, takes us through thick Boreal forest, and affords beautiful views along the way. We quickly break out onto the alpine plateau where we hope to spot moose. Another short climb up the scree and across the rock ridge takes us to the spectacular summit. The views from here are often considered the best in the park, and one can often see as far north as Cow Head, which lies beyond Western Brook Pond. Hiking: 7-8 hours on mixed terrain

Meals: B,L,D

Your adventure ends with a transfer to Deer Lake Airport for your flight home, or onto another journey in Newfoundland.

The Gros Morne Adventure exceeded our expectations. Staying at the charming Gros Morne Inn was both restful and delicious. The staff was exceptional - from Ian and Tara, to the chefs and waitresses - all doing their best to make our experience delightful. We had four different hiking guides and each one brought different perspectives and expertise on Gros Morne and the charming towns within the park. The people of Newfoundland were friendly and welcoming and willing to share their uniquely beautiful home with us. Five stars!

Great Canadian Trails connected us with an excellent staff and skilled guides. We felt challenged and exhilarated on the guided hikes and pampered back at the inn. It's a beautiful park, well worth the hiking experience.

The Gros Morne Adventure was an exceptional mental, spiritual and physical health experience. Tara and the team provided us a very inviting experience that felt like staying and hanging out with old friends. The evening culinary experiences provided us with a wonderful taste of traditional East Coast cuisine (make sure you try the moose samosas and any fresh catch-of-the-day offerings). Pro note: Make sure you include lots of elevation climbs as part of your pre-trip training. Several of the Gros Morne hikes are moderate-to-difficult, but the pay-off is well worth it, with spectacular 360-degree vistas of the park and fjords.

We enjoyed our time on the trails with the guides, who shared the historical and scientific significance of the Gros Morne sites. Our days were organised, but flexible, depending on the weather and hiking conditions. The food, including the daily boxed lunches, was outstanding, as was the service provided by the hotel and restaurant staff.

Every departure date advises whether the date is confirmed, and roughly how full it is. Here is what each one means.

Is the departure confirmed?

Guaranteed to go This departure has reached its minimum number and will run.
It is the point travellers should wait for before booking any non-refundable flights.
Close to guaranteed This appears only when a date is close to reaching minimum numbers. If it shows 1 or 2 to guaranteed, book as a pair on a date needing two and it reaches its minimum. Your booking confirms the date for everybody already booked.

How full is the date I am looking at?

Space is filling or Space is filling fast This date has bookings and places are still open. Filling fast means limited spots available, so don't leave your decision too late.
Closing soon Down to its last few places, or close enough to departure that we are finalising numbers. Still bookable online.
Closed Not bookable online - either full, or inside the notice we need to arrange permits, flights and logistics. Ask us anyway, you never know!

Availability questions answered

Will this trip actually go ahead, or could it be cancelled?

If a date shows Guaranteed to go, it runs regardless of further bookings.

What does 2 to guarantee mean?

It means two travellers are enough to confirm the departure. It could be 2 more to add to the group, or the date only needs 2 people to run. Either way, if you book for two people, the date will become guaranteed to run.

What happens if my departure does not reach minimum numbers?

You will know the status before you book. Every date on this page is labelled, and dates marked “Guaranteed to go” are running regardless of further bookings. Where a date has not reached its minimum we either offer a surcharge to operate for a smaller group size so it can still run, or we cancel it. We contact you directly either way.

Will I get my money back if you cancel a departure?

If we cancel a departure due to not meeting minimum trip numbers, you receive a full refund of everything you have paid us less any non recoverable costs, where insurance may cover you. We cannot refund money committed elsewhere – additional non refundable deposits advised at the time of booking, flights, visas, vaccinations, gear - which is why it is worth waiting for “Guaranteed to go” before booking other arrangements around this trip date. Please read our Booking Terms and Conditions before you book.

Why can't I book some dates online?

Each trip closes online a set time before departure. Permits, internal flights and hut or campsite bookings all have to be arranged before we take payment. Call or enquire as it might still be possible to organise last minute places.

The date I want is closed. What are my options and why does it say to enquire?

Cancellations happen and places do open up on closed dates, so it is worth being on our list. We can also tell you which nearby date on the same trip has space, which is usually the faster route.

None of these dates suit me. Can you run this trip on another date?

Yes, as a private departure. We can run this trip on a date you choose, for your own group - family, friends, a club, or in many cases, just for the two of you. Tell us when you want to travel and who is coming, and we will build it around that.
