King's Cove Lighthouse & Keels Devil's Footprints
Bonavista is a town on the Bonavista Peninsula, Newfoundland in the Canadian province of Newfoundland and Labrador. Unlike many Newfoundland coastal settlements, Bonavista was built on an open plain, not in a steep cove, and thus had room to expand to its current area of 31.5 km².
Brook Point Lookout on The King’s Cove Lighthouse Trail Along the route of the King’s Cove Lighthouse Hiking Trail, hikers will find a detour to Brook Point Lookout. The layer upon layer of multi coloured sedimentary rocks seen at the lookout are known as the Crown Hill Formation. According to the National Geographic Geotourism Map:
“These sediments accumulated over a span of tens of millions of years, more than 550 million years ago. At that time, the land lay in another part of the globe, part of the ancient supercontinent geologists call Gondwana, which was located south of what was then the Equator. It consisted of present day Africa, Arabia, Antarctica, Australia and India. Over the millennia, the mud, silt, sand and gravel were gradually converted, via heat and pressure, a process called lithification, into sedimentary rocks called mudstone, siltstone sandstone and conglomerate.”
The Devil’s Footprints are cavities left where limestone nodules, called concretions, have weathered out of the roadside outcrops. Maybe the true story behind the “footprints” can be explained away by science, but we like the version where locals say they are a sign that Satan himself has walked this trail. The footprints are located near the parking area in Keels so you will not need to walk far to find them. When you arrive in the town of Keels you will see a hand painted sign indicating where the footprints are. Keels itself is a beautiful spot to hop out of the car and snap some shots of outport life. The Canadian National Consensus recorded 61 residents in Keels as of 2011, that is down from 372 in 1940.

Bonavista and Dungeon Provincial Park - EP. 15
We only spent a day and a half in Bonavista and Dungeon Provincial Park.. but it was one of our favourite days on the trip yet.
We decided to take a detour on our way to St. John's to check out the area and park in hopes to find icebergs. We were not disappointed.
In one day, we experienced our first iceberg, puffins, a baby fox and semi-wild cows that were grazing along the coast of the ocean. None of these animals are any we've ever seen before (except cows).
We woke up beside the ocean with icebergs that we could see through our windows.There were lots of sheep, and then we came across a couple of horses. The horse bit my shoe and I almost fell over when it pulled the tongue up (watch to the end to see). We visited it three times afterwards!
We loved it here, and highly recommend it to anyone in the area!
