    Take a hike in Torngat Mountains National Park

    Marvel at the gorgeous fjords, landscapes ablaze with autumn colours, and wonderful wildlife sighting opportunities, including the possibility of both polar and black bears.

    Travel to one of the least-visited coastlines in the country—the Torngats are simply unbeatable!

    Some of the tallest mountains in Canada east of the Rockies form the backdrop to this national park, the only one initiated and staffed entirely by Inuit.

    Experience the fascinating history of Battle Harbour

    This restored 19th-century fishing village is located on a small island in the Labrador Sea and was once the salt fish capital of the world.

    Step back in time and immerse yourself in the rich history as you explore the National Historic District. Walk in the footsteps of traditional fishermen and merchants, and experience life as it was in the 1800s.

  • Tablelands view of mountains

    Hike the spectacular Tablelands at Gros Morne National Park

    Revel in the spectacular geology at Gros Morne National Park, where the Earth’s mantle actually protrudes through the crust to form the unique mountainous formations of the Tablelands.

    Learn the unique natural history of Gros Morne from experienced naturalists and see the desert-like landscape dominated by peridotite, where few things can grow.

    Experience Inuit culture in Nain, the capital of Nunatsiavut

    Stop in at the historic Moravian church and learn about its history, listen to the brass band, and visit Illusuak—the stunning new cultural centre by the waterfront in Nain.

    Many of our expedition team members call Nain home. You’ll have the opportunity to explore their community through walking tours and scenic hikes, as you create meaningful cultural connections.
