First Class Outdoor Recreation

The residents of Labrador West are walking enthusiasts. The walking trails around Jean Lake in Wabush and Tanya Lake in Labrador City are popular and extremely picturesque. The Crystal Falls hiking trail just off of the Fermont Highway provides a spectacular view and infinite photo opportunities. For the adventurer, the hiking trails around Smokey Mountain provide breathtaking views of the towns and nothing but wilderness to explore.

Geography & Climate

Our town is literally surrounded by forest, as well as picturesque mountains and crystal clear lakes, and this type of landscape spans outward for miles. It is bliss for snowboarders, skiers, hunters, fishers, photographers, hikers, campers, mountain bikers, and increasingly for business people. Characterized by a sweeping geographical region of thin soil and abundant mineral resources, this land is ideal to house our mining industry.
