About Labrador
Labrador, The Big Land, one of the last untamed, unspoiled places left on earth. It stretches from the Strait of Belle Isle in the south, to Cape Chidley in the far north, boasting towering mountains, massive rock faces and an infinite supply of lakes and rivers, not to mention waters seasonally teeming with whales and icebergs. Here, you'll find plenty of fresh air, crystal clear water and truly authentic people.
Torngat Mountains National Park is a carved, mysteriously beautiful landscape reminiscent of the earth a million years ago. This is where outdoor aficionados can indulge their passion, with 300,000 square kilometres to hike, photograph, snowmobile and cross-country ski. And where rivers challenge even the most adventurous whitewater canoeists. You will also find an abundance of wildlife, including polar bears, the largest carnivore in the world.
Teeming with game and fish, Labrador is home to the best brook trout angling on the planet; here, you'll find trophy-sized catches. The region is a pristine paradise for sports fishermen and hunters, and there are plenty of experienced and resourceful outfitters to guide you along the way.
The people of Labrador are proud and self-reliant. The Innu and Inuit have lived here for thousands of years, and their cultures are rooted in a deep, spiritual relationship with the environment. The long and intriguing history of Labrador's indigenous people can be traced back almost 9,000 years, with the oldest funeral monument in North America, dating back 7,500 years – 3,000 years before the Egyptian pyramids were built. The region also boasts rich New World history, thanks to a once-plentiful right and bowhead whale population, which attracted 16th-century Basque whalers to the Strait of Belle Isle. Labrador's unique heritage is celebrated time and again at area folk festivals, carnivals, sporting and community events throughout the year.
Under a blanket of magical northern lights, the winter months bring with them the hum of a thousand snowmobiles carving through the untouched wilderness. And the quieter winter pursuits, like cross-country and downhill skiing, ice fishing, and winter camping, set against an abundance of breathing room, are always good for body and soul.

Labrador2 DaysWalk through Hhstory in Southern Labrador. Labrador is huge — more than 285,000 sq km of wilderness, dotted in only a few dozen places by towns and villages. Aboriginal people have lived here for thousands of years, and have used cairns and Inukshuks to signpost their travelways. In other words, it's easy to get lost if you stray off the trail. On this trip, we'll spend two days in Southeastern Labrador visiting the historic sites.
-
Labrador3 DaysLabrador, the ‘Big Land,’ is still full of beautiful, untouched wilderness, but a new road in the southeastern region has opened up a new stretch of coastline to tourists who could previously only visit by boat. Here you’ll find the oldest funeral monument in North America, a Basque whaling station from the 16th century, and a historic fishing outport captured in time.
-
Labrador623 kmThe completion of a road link to central Labrador and the world beyond, and the extension of ferry service between Newfoundland and Labrador to a year-round operation, is bringing change to the southeast coast of The Big Land. For the first time ever, residents can drive north and then west to North America. It has also opened up this area to exploration by visitors who are eager to see a part of the world that was previously beyond their rubber-tired reach. What these new explorers find is a wild land dotted with a few coastal settlements inhabited mainly by the descendants of fisherman who began to settle here 200 years ago.
-
Labrador1152 kmThe interior of Labrador is a vast wilderness with recent pockets of modern industrialization in Labrador City, Wabush, Churchill Falls and Happy Valley-Goose Bay. Those who come this way will find an outdoor enthusiast's paradise. There are thousands of pristine lakes teeming with trout, hundreds of rivers that will test your boating skills and kilometre after kilometre of forests and barren ground filled with game. During winter this country is particularly spectacular and there's lots to do — ice fishing, snowmobiling, cross-country skiing and tobogganing, just to name a few.
-
Labradorby BoatLabrador's north coast is undergoing a tremendous change. For much of the past 250 years, European missionaries, fur traders and administrators have dominated the social and economic life of the North Coast, with the aspirations of the aboriginal peoples, the Inuit and Innu, pushed to the background no more. The establishment of aboriginal self-government and the settlement of land claims guarantee they have a major say in social and economic development. The creation of Torngat Mountains National Park, one of the outcomes of the land claims settlement, preserves an important spiritual component of the Inuit homeland.
