My husband and I hiked this trail a few days ago to ascend to the summit of Gros Morne Mountain, the second highest peak in Newfoundland. and it was an awesome experience! The official guide claims that the entire trail measures 9.6 miles, but my GPS tracking recorded a half marathon. The trail definitely calls for a pair of good hiking boots with good ankle support. The most grueling was the 500 meter ascend from the base via a scree filled gully. In addition to the loose rocks, there was also a stretch of snow on the way. From below we could not really see the mountain top since it was shrouded in clouds. Park rangers in general recommend caution when clouds hide the top. We pressed on anyway, fully aware that we may not be able to see far from the top if the cloud persisted. It took us about an hour to cover the steep climbing along the gully. 3 and half hours after we set off at the trail head, we reached the summit at about 2,900 feet. Part of the mountain range was covered by the cloud, however, a bit below the summit and on our way hiking down, we were rewarded with a spectacular view of the Ten Mile Brook Pond (see my photos). It took us a bit over 7 hours to complete the hike including picture stops along the way. We were not sure whether this trail would be doable for a 12 year old prior to our hiking, due to the concerns over the gravel gully. Having completed it, I think it would totally be doable. This is a must-do in my opinion if you are visiting Gros Morne National Park.

6. The Tablelands

Reviewed By JenniferandAlan - Easton, United States
Driving from Woody Point to Trout River you will come upon this special place. On the right side of the road is the typical green NL vegetation while on the left there is a reddish brown flat topped mountain barren of vegetation. The tablelands were formed hundreds of millions of years ago when the Africa plate collided with the North America plate and forced the mantle of the earth up. It is actually the remains of the ancient ocean floor. This rock lacks nutrients for plant life and is toxic to them so the look is that of a barren desert. The reddish brown color is from the rock that is high in iron and is actually rusting. Who knew. The parking lots get you close enough to take a short stroll even if you don't do the whole hike then you too can say you walked on the ocean floor.

The theatre was running a play "Our Living Father" a one man play, excellently acted, about the life of the first premier of Newfoundland, Joey Smallwood, a person we were quite interested in. If it is performed elsewhere in the province we recommended viewing the production. Congratulations to Theatre Newfoundland. The theatre is steps away from the Shallow Bay Motel. All tickets and prepayment is made on line. Tickets are picked up at the box office prior to the performance.
