Gems of Gros Morne
3 Day Tour | Hiking/Walking, Indigenous, Marine, Culinary
Hold a piece of the Earth’s mantle in your hands. Walk a sheep’s path to the edge of the Gulf of St. Lawrence. Raise your eyes to the top of the ancient cliffs in Western Brook. Glide your paddle through the waters of Bonne Bay. We’ll explore the best Gros Morne National Park has to offer in this 3 day experience-from the awe-inspiring UNESCO World Heritage sites to the down-to-earth traditions of our people and Indigenous Ancestors.
Gems of Gros Morne offers the chance to explore our land and culture in a guided, small group experience. Every detail is included in your days activity-park passes, boat tours, packed lunches and transport. Accommodations and airport shuttle can be added to this package.
