The Green Gardens Hiking Trail is located in the Gros Morne National Park on the island of Newfoundland. The Newfoundland and Labrador Province is the easternmost province of Canada, with its own climate, geoformations, and wildlife. The park is on the western side of the island, looking across the Gulf of St. Lawrence to mainland Canada.
Beginning in the rugged trails of the Tablelands, your program will take you through the unusual terrain of Gros Morne, which includes exposed mantle. Our path winds through boreal forests to the coast, where we reach sea cliffs of volcanic rock and see the thriving lush meadows and fascinating geology. The afternoon consists of meandering through fields of wildflowers, exploring the shore, and examining the history of the rocky coastline.
You can keep your eyes peeled for sheep, as the region was long used as a summer range for livestock and some of its wooly descendants remain today. There are also caribou, moose, and other remarkable wildlife to discover, and catching a glimpse of a whale off the coast is not out of the question during the early summer months.
This trip gives you a little bit of everything. You can pass gorgeous forestland after the barren landscape of the Tablelands and finish your hike with the coastal views that round out a perfect afternoon. We will return the same way we came, taking every opportunity to appreciate this captivating region at every bend in the road.
This program is a wonderful day hike for anyone enthralled by the beauty of Newfoundland and Labrador. You should be in reasonable shape for a day of hiking through some steep and rugged sections along the trails.
We love Canada’s natural beauty and are always excited to show it to others. We will ensure you have a fun, safe, and utterly fulfilling adventure that will make you want to return to this fabulous slice of nature.
Book this day hike TODAY and experience the charm and beauty of Gros Morne National Park in eastern Canada!
We can also give you an immersive nine-day guiding tour through Gros Morne and the Tablelands! Or we can try a winter mountain biking program in Mont Tremblant National Park!

Climbing with guide Guillaume was absolutely a highlight of my 2-week Europe vacation. Originally, we were planning on climbing in the Calanques, but the park was closed due to wind and fire danger. Guillaume chose another amazing location (Pic de Bretagne) based on my climbing abilities and preferences and kindly offered train station pick-up and hotel drop off, which I appreciated very much. The multi-pitch route we did was not only fun but also the right amount of challenge, which I thoroughly enjoyed. The communication from the team (Gauthier) was prompt and clear—highly recommend!

Luis Silva was a great climbing guide and belayer! He taught me how to do moves that were difficult and encouraged me to try routes that were challenging for me! Because of his encouragement, I managed to complete these routes! I really enjoyed the climbs and completed 8 routes in the Sesimbra/Azoia area. The weather was perfect, no direct sun and cool enough to enjoy the climbs. Explore-Share made booking an outdoor climbing experience in Lisbon extremely easy. Luis, our guide, was fantastic, and the platform’s organization was flawless.

We had Léo as a guide for our day climb in Fonty. We were blessed with a knowledgeable, warm, and instructive guide. Communication with Léo and Ivan was smooth and swift. Explore-Share was excellent in arranging everything for our day climb. The communication was quick, and the platform was easy to use, making our adventure stress-free.

Patrick was a great guide. He took us on an intermediate Via Ferrata at Passo Sella. Renato was quick to respond with any outreach on the Explore-Share platform. The booking process was straightforward, and once Patrick was confirmed, all went well. It was a wonderful experience, and I’d highly recommend the platform.
