Drive to the top of Blue Hill and see why Terra Nova National Park is one of Newfoundland's treasures. Only a five-minute drive west of Newman Sound Campground, Blue Hill offers an ideal spot for sightseeing from two spectacular lookouts.

The first sight, overlooking Newman Sound, is wheelchair accessible and is equipped with an accessible spotting scope. Two interpretive panels provide an introduction to Terra Nova.

Drive to the very top and stand on the highest point in the park. From this point, you can feel the wind blowing in your face. Breathe in the fresh air and marvel at the beauty that surrounds you in all directions. A spotting scope and interpretive panels are here to help you experience the park to its fullest.

Blue Hill is a must if you are planning on staying overnight or just passing through the park.
