INTRODUCTION
Lomond River Lodge located in Gros Morne National Park

 
Hiking Trails
    • Lomond River
    The trail runs between Highway 431 and the Killdevil church camp. Side-trails lead down to the river. The trail crosses second-growth forest, overlooks the East Arm Barachoix where logs used to be driven and passes the remains of an old
    sawmill. You can also pick up the trail at the edge of the woods south of the church camp.
     
    • Tablelands
    The unusual geology here marks a time when the continents of Africa and North America collided, pushing these rocks, originally beneath the ocean, to their present position on land. Follow the old road from the exhibit to the entrance of
    Winterhouse Brook Canyon. Then explore this alien landscape.
     
    • Old Mail Road
    From the Shallow Bay day-use area this trail follows the old mail road along the edge of the campground, and then proceeds north to the Slants River.
     
    • Broom Point
    The trail starts beside the toilet building at the Broom Point and winds through tuckamore forest to a flower filled coastal meadow overlooking the mouth of Western Brook.
     
    • Western Brook Pond
    Leading to the Western Brook Pond boat tour, with a spur trail to a beach near Stag Brook, the trail crosses coastal bogs and low forested limestone ridges over gentle terrain and boardwalks.
     
    • Snug Harbour
    This trail is a spur off Western Brook Pond Trail, and leads to a campsite at the foot of Long Range Mountains.
     
    • Coastal
    This trail follows the old winter mail road along the coast between Baker's Brook and Green point.
     
    • Berry Head Pond
    The use of boardwalk on first portion of this trail allows people with limited mobility to enjoy the pond.
     
    • Lobster Cove Head
    A sign by the parking lot maps the multiple paths down to the shoreline.
     
    • Berry Hill
    Berry Hill is a low round rock knob that was an island during higher sea-levels just after the last ice age.
     
    • Bakers Brook Falls
    The falls are the main attraction of this trail, rivaled by a profusion of spring and summer wild flowers in the bogs and forests.
     
    • Berry Hill Pond
    This trail is fine for an after-dinner stroll, or you can walk it before breakfast when the birds are in song.
     
    • Gros Morne Mountain (James Callahan Trail)
    It is very important to be will prepared before undertaking this hike. The view from the top is renowned, as is the steep climb up the scree slope.
     
    • Southeast Brook Falls
    A short, fairly easy hike through the woods will bring you to the falls, which are most impressive during spring run-off or after a heavy rain.
     
    • Stuckless Pond
    Branching off the Lomond River Trail, this spur crosses a suspension bridge, then climbs to Stuckless Pond.
     
    • Stanleyville
    The trail begins at the Lomond day-use area playground, and climbs over a ridge and down to a cove at stanleyville, the site of a sawmill and small community active in the early 1900's.
     
    • Lookout
    This trail rises steeply up the forested hillside to the wet meadow and barrens of the plateau. Boardwalk leads to partridge berry hill and the best panoramic view of Bonne Bay and the Tablelands.
     
    • Green Gardens
    A trail head sign maps the different possibilities of this hike. This trail leads to a coast of sea stacks, volcanic cliffs, a sea cave accessible at low tide and a secluded cove with a sparkling waterfall.
     
    • Trout River Pond
    This trail follows the north shore of Trout River Small Pond.
