Worth stopping for

Codroy Valley Provincial Park

On the way to…

  1. YDF → Port aux Basques →

    The mapped reserve on the Grand Codroy estuary — the broad, sheltered river mouth that makes this valley the west coast's great bird water. Waterfowl staging in the wetlands, the Long Range mountains stacked behind, and a green softness the rest of this shore doesn't attempt. ParksNL publishes what operates and when.

    Stopping here adds about 17 min and 17.3 km to that drive (3h 28m door to door).

Drive it with your own nav:Organic Maps →OsmAnd →Apple →Google →Waze →The first two run on OpenStreetMap and don't track you — the same map this site is built from.

What the map knows

Mapped as nature reserve in OpenStreetMap.

While you're stopped here: Wreckhouse (13.9 km away) · J.T. Cheeseman Provincial Park (23.2 km away) · Cape Ray Lighthouse (23.7 km away)

The map last touched this element on 2011-10-25 — an old date is not proof of closure, only of nobody updating the map; if you know better, edit OpenStreetMap and every site built on it learns.

All of it read from the cited element and this site's own measured stops (2026-09-05); nothing above is our endorsement — it is the map's record.

Where this pin comes from: OpenStreetMap node/1366859459 → — the same element every figure on this page is checked against.
