With almost 10,000 kilometres of rugged coastline zig-zagging in and out of its coves and inlets, Newfoundland is a photographer’s dream destination. But where to start when you are looking for the best locations? After doing our research and asking the advice of some in-the-know locals, we set our sights on the Bonavista Peninsula and headed off with a rental car, a battery of memory cards, and high expectations. We weren’t disappointed.
Maybe it’s the historic, log-cabin aesthetic that harkens back to a day when the great railway hotels of Canada were truly remote wilderness destinations. Or maybe it’s the neighbourly way that everyone at the Fairmont Jasper Park Lodge seems to support the small community of which they are a major part. Or maybe it’s something in the Rocky Mountain air and the absolutely stunning location of the property that speaks to your soul. Whatever it is, there’s something special about this particular Fairmont that makes it more than just a stay at a luxury hotel – time spent here is a bucket list experience like no other.
