A quiet, self-paced wander through the colourful heritage district that was once the commercial and legal heart of Newfoundland's west coast.
What to expect
You'll pass restored merchant houses, the old courthouse, and the lighthouse, with Bonne Bay and the Tablelands as a constant backdrop. There's no crowd this early, just fishermen readying boats and the sound of the harbour. It's the walk a local would actually send you on to understand what this place is.
Good to know
Start right from the pier before the day's excursions depart; pick up the walking-route map at the Discovery Centre or download it in advance since cell service is patchy.
