Just tie on a sturdy pair of shoes and you're off. The hiking options around Marble Mountain are near endless. Here's just a couple of the trails you can take on. Steady Brook Falls: Steady Brook Falls is one of the Humber Valley's most amazing natural attractions. From Marble Mountain Resort, it's just a short (but steep!) 1 km hike along a forested trail. Once at the summit, you'll find a 3-tier viewing platform from which to get a birds eye view of the Falls as they plunge more than 100 feet. For the most spectacular experience, head up during snow melt or after a rainstorm. And most importantly, don't forget your camera! Marble Mountain: If it's a good workout you're after, why not take on Marble Mountain itself? From the resort, steep trails will take you all the way to the top. A good route is to head up Country Road. If you're not familiar with the mountain, trail maps are available in the lodge. The views are breathtaking, but so is the climb, so this one should be attempted by active hikers only. Man in the Mountain: From Route 440 in Corner Brook, the Man in the Mountain trail is a 2.5 km hike with a 300m ascent. But it is so worth the effort. Along the way you'll pass through beautiful sandy beaches, awe-inspiring switchbacks and some of the most incredible views around. Come in autumn for the most impact when the changing leaves present an intense riot of colour. The Heritage Tree Newfoundland and Labrador's rich history includes many cultures; from the Vikings and the Beothuck Indians, to the English, Irish and French were all drawn to our shores by an abundance of codfish. In 1949, we became a province of Canada. To mark the 50th anniversary of this important date, the Heritage Tree Committee and former Steady Brook Mayor Trevor Bennett installed The Heritage Tree at the base of Marble Mountain. The Heritage Tree is a symbol of Canadian unity. This 17-metre (52 foot) cedar tree features 50 carvings representing over 1,000 years of human history. Western Forests Products of British Columbia donated the 360-year-old tree to the project and Newfoundlanders all across Canada donated their time and equipment to transport the Tree across the country. The carved images include tributes to John Cabot's discovery of Newfoundland in 1497, the landing of the Vikings at L'Anse aux Meadows over 1,000 years ago, and a commemoration of 1949, the year Newfoundland and Labrador joined Canadian Confederation. You can view the Tree for free, but donations to the Heritage Tree Committee are gratefully accepted via an on-site donation box.
