This seasonal closure gives animals like the Arctic hare, rock ptarmigan, and caribou the peace and space they need to safely care for their newborns.
To protect wildlife during a critical time of reproduction and growth, the 8 km Summit Trail of Gros Morne Mountain is now closed to visitors until June 27th. This seasonal closure gives animals like the Arctic hare, rock ptarmigan, and caribou the peace and space they need to safely care for their newborns. For example: Rock ptarmigan chicks rely on their mother's warmth every few minutes after hatching. If she’s disturbed for too long, the chicks can quickly succumb to cold and wet conditions. Caribou calves are born during this time and need a quiet environment to gain strength and mobility alongside their mothers. The closure also helps protect the mountain’s fragile alpine terrain. Soils that are still wet or frost-heaved are highly vulnerable to erosion and long-term damage. Provincial Government Recognizes Municipal Awareness Week
