For our first adventure in Newfoundland's Gros Morne National Park we tackled one of our bucket list backpacking trips: the Long Range Traverse. This almost 50 km hike gains around 1,700 meters of elevation as it traverses the Long Range Mountains. And it is not for the faint of heart.

With zero maintained trail to follow, thick tuckamore, river crossings, and wet, boggy terrain, it’s both a mental and physical challenge. We spent 4 days on the “trail” and along the way experienced fjords, lakes, untouched wilderness, rain storms, and tons of seclusion. It was an incredible adventure that we will never forget!
