Looking for recommendations to fill in the middle of a 15 day trip to Newfoundland. Me and my wife are both active and looking forward to a lot of hiking as well as good food. After reading many comments we cut down our trip and are trying to focus it a little more. What we have now is:

Day 1 arrive early afternoon start driving to Gros Morne and get around half the trip done before getting tired
Day 2 finish drive to Gros Morne and start exploring
Day 3 - 6 - Gros Morne (Table Lands, Gros Morne Mtn, Western Brook, and Green Gardens)
Day 7 - 11 - Drive back to St. Johns (This is instead of the drive up to L'Anse aux Meadows, wanted to see it but felt it would rush the trip too much) 1st trip so looking for any recommendation of where to spend these few days
Day 12-15 St. John's and short day trips from there.

Any recommendations or thoughts would be appreciated.

Thanks in advance.

We loved Bonavista. Also the root cellars at Elliston and the village of Trinity. This area could take two days on the way to St. Johns.

On the Avalon Peninsula from St Johns, there is some great hiking.

Head down to Pouch Cove to Points East. If you are looking for a nice B&B there is this spot-the food is excellent and there is good hiking on the east coast trail from there too.

Thank you for the comments. We will look into both of those.

Cheers.

Twillingate should be on your itinerary from Gros Morne to St. John's.
