Overview

On this three-hour coastal hike, we’ll leave the city streets behind and explore the rugged beauty surrounding Signal Hill and the North Head Trail, part of the world-renowned East Coast Trail. Along the way, your guide will share the fascinating history that shaped this dramatic landscape - from military defences and wartime watchpoints to the moment that helped change global communication forever.

But history isn’t the only storey here. As we wind along the cliffs, we’ll also point out the plants that cling to the rocky coastline, the seabirds that call these cliffs home, and the geology that built this rugged edge of the continent millions of years ago.

This tour is moderately demanding, with stairs, elevation changes, and uneven terrain, but the payoff is big: sweeping ocean views, salty air, and a deeper understanding of the place that has watched over St. John’s harbour for centuries.

PLEASE NOTE: this tour is in St. John's, Newfoundland NOT Saint John, New Brunswick.
