Begin your excursion with a drive up the Viking trail heading to Gros Morne National Park. Perhaps the best way to put the park into perspective is to say that it's a UNESCO World Heritage Site. That designation puts it on a par with such natural wonders as Australia's Great Barrier Reef. With its fjords, mountains and spectacular ocean scenery, Gros Morne offers unexcelled opportunities for outdoor activities and sightseeing. The park is an area of great natural beauty with a rich variety of scenery, wildlife, and recreational activities. Visitors can hike through wild, uninhabited mountains and camp by the sea. Boat tours bring visitors under the towering cliffs of a freshwater fjord carved out by glaciers. Waterfalls, marine inlets, sea stacks, sandy beaches, and colourful nearby fishing villages complete the phenomenal natural and cultural surroundings of Gros Morne National Park of Canada. This trip has many options available, as the possibilities are endless. Appalachian Adventures are pleased to assist you in selecting your choice of activities while touring the park, and providing you with a complete itinerary for your convenience.

Brook Trout Brook Trout fishing is probably the fastest growing outdoor sport in Newfoundland and Labrador. It's not until recently that avid fishermen have realized the joy and excitement involved in brook trout fishing. The crystal clear water in the rivers of Newfoundland and Labrador makes a great home for this flamboyant fish species. One of the most delicious of the trout family, a superb table fish, considered better eating than brown or rainbow trout. Depending on the fish's diet, the flesh can vary from white to bright orange.

After descending on the other side of the mountain, you will arrive at Lomond River Lodge, a full service lodge with all the amenities.

Wind down the festivities with a relaxing boat tour of the Humber Valley. Come and explore the majestic Humber River that navigates slowly through the beautiful Humber Valley of Western Newfoundland. The Humber River is known as one of North America’s best Atlantic Salmon rivers. Salmon anglers from all over the world travel to Corner Brook to take advantage of the slow, deep ‘steadies’. Legend has it that there is a buried treasure on Shellbird Island in the Humber River. At this point in the river you will bear witness to the natural rock formation of the “Old Man in the Mountain” which is said to be watching over the buried treasure.

The Humber Valley is spectacular year-round, particularly so in the late summer and early fall. Vibrant autumn colors appear in mid-September as millions of trees show off their brilliant shades of red, orange and gold with the most radiant of the colors in their prime around mid-October. At the heart of the Humber River Valley is the picturesque town of Steady Brook, home of the Marble Mountain Ski Resort and the magnificent Steady Brook Falls.
