Newfoundland and Labrador has much more to offer than what is found in tourism guides. For explorers both local and from away who wish to step off the beaten track, this guide is for you. This province is filled with geologic wonders, mysterious histories, curious structures, and off-the-beaten-path destinations.

HIDDEN NEWFOUNDLAND describes over 80 of these marvellous, sometimes mysterious places. Each site description includes historical context, information about the area and, of course, insider''s directions for how to get there.
