Adventure Canada's News

Adventure Canada is excited to now be offering an optional
pre-embarkation day tour to hike in the beautiful Gros Morne National
Park! 

It has been said that: 'Gros Morne is to geology what the
Galapagos are
to biology.' A UNESCO World Heritage Site, the landscape is one of
spectacular landlocked, freshwater fjords and glacier-scoured headlands
in an ocean setting.

Departing on September 24, our day will be spent exploring this
outstanding
environment. We will have the opportunity to visit the tablelands,
where we can view one of the world's best examples of the process of
plate tectonics. Those looking to stretch their legs can enjoy a
lengthy hike to the coast and be rewarded with spectacular cliff top
views. The two dominating landscapes, coastal lowland and alpine
plateau provide habitat for an array of flora and fauna: moose, woodland
caribou and giant Arctic hare, as well as over 30 species of wild
orchids. We can find boreal, arctic and temperate species all in one
compact geographic region. All of this diversity and a stunning
backdrop to boot, Gros Morne is a place to be appreciated.
