French: Parc national du Gros-Morne
The Gros Morne National Park is a World Heritage site in Canada defined by the UNESCO in 1987 and definitely a recommended natural sightseeing Location.
It is on position 829 (887, 1021) in our monthly survey..

"Situated on the west coast of the island of Newfoundland, the park provides a rare example of the process of continental drift, where deep ocean crust and the rocks of the earth's mantle lie exposed. More recent glacial action has resulted in some spectacular scenery, with coastal lowland, alpine plateau, fjords, glacial valleys, sheer cliffs, waterfalls and many pristine lakes."
