Fun Things to Do in Corner Brook Year Round!

Corner Brook is truly a four season travel destination for people who love to spend time outdoors. With four distinct seasons, people travelling to or living in Corner Brook have their pick of activities to enjoy the outdoors. Because of its location on the west coast of Newfoundland, Corner Brook is a showcase of great beauty, and a diverse range of recreation and outdoor pursuits. What would I recommend to travelers to Corner Brook? Well, let’s get started!

1. With winter just around the corner, let’s take a look at Marble Mountain, the site of some of the best things to do in Corner Brook, including some of the best downhill skiing east of the Rockies. Ski all thirty nine runs that range from easy to the double diamond.
2. Also located near Marble Mountain, and open year round, is a zip line. From the top of this canopy tour to the bottom, travel onto nine different zip lines, for a total of about 2000 feet long and 285 feet high.
3. Open from spring to fall, test your courage and stamina on the high ropes course near Marble Mountain. This ropes course, called the Spider Challenge, will take you climbing fifty feet into the air. Look around for breathtaking views of the Humber Valley.
4. Go to the Lewis Hills for some backcountry tours, or travel to Deer Lake on part of the 883 km T’Railway Provincial Park which crosses the province following the old Canadian National rail bed. Take a shorter trek to Massey Drive and other areas near Corner Brook. How? On SNOWMOBILE – one of the fun things to do in Corner Brook in winter.

Tippings Pond Trail in Massey Drive is a great place to hike and to snowshoe, another one of the fun things to do in Corner Brook this winter.
7. During spring, summer, and fall, enjoy canoeing and kayaking on many of the lakes and rivers nearby. Don’t forget Corner Brook’s proximity to the Humber River.
