Gros Morne National Park of Canada was designated a UNESCO World Heritage
Site in 1987. It is an area of great natural beauty with a rich variety of s
cenery, wildlife, and recreational activities. Visitors can hike through
wild, uninhabited mountains and camp by the sea. Boat tours bring visitors
under the towering cliffs of a freshwater fjord carved out by glaciers.
Waterfalls, marine inlets, sea stacks, sandy beaches, and colourful nearby
fishing villages complete the phenomenal natural and cultural surroundings
of Gros Morne National Park of Canada.
A licensed moose hunt is underway in Gros Morne National Park from 11
