Look for the ancient conglomerate rocks exposed along the trail near the top. From the exhibit area you will be able to get a close-up look at Newman Sound and other areas of the park with the fully accessible spotting scope. The last manned fire tower in Newfoundland reaches 60 feet above your head. From here you will feel like you are on top of the world. Along this trail, you can explore the pond's edge, open bogs and the cool, northern forest of Terra Nova National Park.
National parks keep plants and animals safe from harm.
Please stay on the trail to avoid distrubing them. Take only pictures and leave only footprints. Signs along the way help you understand the hidden stories of Sandy Pond Trail. Information last updated September 17, 1996.
