Ochre Hill Lookout

4.8(36 reviews)

About

Ochre Hill Lookout, on Newfoundland, stands off Unnamed Road, Sandringham, NL A0G 3Y0, Canada. The setting is rural Sandringham, away from the larger centres, so a first visit calls for planning the route in advance.

Visitors have given it 4.8 out of 5 across 36 reviews, one of the higher averages among Newfoundland's smaller sites. St John's, Gander, Grand Falls-Windsor, Twillingate, Bonavista and Trinity sit within the island's road network, though the drive from any of them takes time. Corner Brook and Gros Morne lie further west along the same island.

The lookout occupies a spot in the Sandringham area, on the eastern side of Newfoundland.

Newfoundland has cod and bakeapple berries as part of its food heritage, and fishing, sealing and shipbuilding shaped island communities, with Celtic music surviving in Cape Breton and Newfoundland. Canada's Arctic Archipelago includes Baffin, Victoria and Ellesmere Islands, among the largest islands on Earth. Prince Edward Island is known for potatoes and Malpeque oysters, a reminder of how varied Canada's island produce can be.
