The best camping near Cataracts Provincial Park guide

Overview

About

Embark on an adventure through the rugged landscapes of Cataracts Provincial Park. With its deep river gorge and two cascading waterfalls, this natural haven invites photographers and nature enthusiasts alike. Venture down the gorge on well-maintained stairs and walkways, cross the river, and immerse yourself in the park's serene beauty. While camping is not available, the park offers a day-use area that is perfect for picnics and relaxation amid the stunning scenery.

When to go

The best time to visit Cataracts Provincial Park is between June 5th and October 12th when the park is open to the public. During these months, the weather is most favourable for exploring the gorge and waterfalls. Avoid the off-season, as the park is closed, and the harsh Newfoundland weather can make the terrain difficult to navigate.

Know before you go

  • Ensure you wear sturdy footwear as the terrain can be uneven and slippery, especially when descending the gorge.
  • Check the weather forecast before your visit, as conditions can change rapidly in Newfoundland and Labrador.
  • Bring a camera or smartphone to capture the stunning views of the waterfalls and gorge.
  • Remember that the park is a day-use area only, with no overnight camping facilities available.
  • For any inquiries, contact the park directly at +1 (709) 637-2040.
