Newfoundland is one of the most beautiful provinces in
Canada and has become a vacation spot for anyone who loves
to participate in all that nature has to offer. There are
several outdoors activities that the whole family can become
involved in and fully enjoy including skiing and hiking.
Hiking is at its finest in the Newfoundland province. You
can hike the Trans Canada Trial which leads to every
province in Canada. The Tans Canada Trail is over twenty
thousand kilometers long so you will probably only want to
hike a very small portion of that trail.
Skiing has always been and still is one of the sports that
make Newfoundland a distinctive destination in Canada. There
are many different areas that are open in the cooler months
for skiing including the Marble Mountain area in Steady
Brook. There is even a snow school for anyone who has not
had skiing experience to learn the ropes involved in this
sport.
Skiing takes on a new life in the beautiful mountains of
Canada which are filled with all of the traditional foods
and culture of the country. Moose is a particularly
interesting food and certainly something that the
adventurous members of your family will enjoy trying at
least once.
If you are in Newfoundland on a hiking trip then you will
encounter some of the various wildlife first hand as you
wander around the region. Moose are the most common animals
that one finds in the area although there are plenty of
birds and small mammals there to observe.
The Gos Morne National Park offers hundreds of animals
including bears and fish that make their home in the
Newfoundland area. You will also want to spend some time
observing the birds of the area since there are over two
hundred different varieties in the park.
The cities of Newfoundland are quaint and offer a wide
variety of home cooked meals for everyone to enjoy. The
specialties of the region include the traditional fish and
chips as well as a wide variety of seafood dishes. The town
of St. Johns is a must visit in Newfoundland since it boasts
a traditional Irish atmosphere that is unique to the region.
St. Johns offers charming bed and breakfast lodging that
will make even the most cautious traveler feel right at home
since the people in the town are just as friendly as the
friends you already have.
Newfoundland is a wonderful place to visit offering both
sports activities and wonderful homemade foods and crafts
that will tempt you to extend your trip for an extra week or
so.
