This is a UNESCO World Heritage site that demonstrates evidence of continental drift. As such, there are a broad variety of terrains and drastically different landscapes. There are tons of beautiful hikes and other outdoor activities available. The drive in was gorgeous and it only gets better from there.
If planning a trip, I'd plan around closures (such as the Gros Morne summit being closed to protect wildlife in May and June this year). Even if certain parts of the park is closed, there are still plenty of things to do. I'd start every visit at the Discovery Center, where you can learn about the different geographical features of the park.

11 days in this jewel of Canada made us dread going back to the U.S. Wonderful hikes without any crowds. September was a great time to be there. Such beautiful variety and peaceful. If you can only get to Newfoundland once, go here. The boat ride is worth the price.
You have to visit to experience the untouched beauty of this magnificent national park situated on western coast of Newfoundland.
Pictures and video just cannot do justice to its unparalleled beauty. You get the mountains,ocean,beach,sandbanks,fjords,culture, beautiful sunset and sunrises all rolled in one when you visit the national park.
I say it's one of those places you should consider as a bucket list when exploring Canada.

Beautiful place, we stayed at Lomond campground and hiked Stanleyville trail, beautiful calm bay at the end of the trail. We also hiked tablelands and the lookout trail. Had an amazing time. We had to drive to the hikes outside our campgrounds (tablelands 38km). Everyone in the town is super friendly and helpful. Will be back for sure!
See the Tablelands and take the tour. Lots things to see and plenty of hiking trails . Go to the Disvovery Center it helps you understand the area better . Go to Trout River and eat at The Blue Whale and buy something at the store . There is a museum stop for a few minutes. Need souvenirs there is a small shop in town there .
Do as many guided programs as you can!! Great way to learn about what you are seeing geologically, culturally, and historically! We were impressed with the guides. This park is a treasure!
One of the most beautiful parks in all of Canada and the best place in all of Newfoundland. When I toured the island this was by far the most memorable place out of all of them. The best place to stay nearby is Cows Head or in Rocky Harbour as both are pretty close with multiple options for accomodations
