Newfoundland: In the Footsteps of the Vikings
A Natural and Cultural History Journey with Maine Audubon
Walk in the footsteps of the New World's first peoples and explore the home of the first Viking explorers. This exciting holiday starts and ends in Deer Lake, Newfoundland, and explores the nature and geology of the country's western coast. Gros Morne National Park, a United Nations World Heritage Site; L'Anse aux Meadows, North America's only known Viking settlement; and Red Bay, the Labrador home of over 1,500 Basque whalers during the 1540s, are some of the highlights of this unique vacation. This trip also features the northern terminus of the Appalachian Mountains, many birds and wildlife, a Viking feast, and a short journey to the “center of the Earth” (hills formed by the uplift of a deep portion of the Earth's crust). Enjoy Newfoundlanders, their culture, and landscape on this unforgettable holiday as they celebrate the 1,109th anniversary of the Vikings walking our shores. Bob Bittenbender and Margi Huber, hosts. • Advance registration is necessary! • Maine Audubon, 20 Gilsland Farm Road, Falmouth, Maine 04105 • 207-781-2330, ext. 215
