## What it is and where

Tablelands - Off Trail Hike is a hiking trail in Canada (Trout River, Newfoundland and Labrador).

Half a billion years ago, ancient continents collided, building the Appalachian Mountain chain. In Tablelands, it exposed the mantle of Earth. More that 400 million years of erosion revealed the Earth's inner soul: a surreal barren, orange landscape.

It is in [Trout River, Newfoundland and Labrador](https://kokai.app/en/paises/america/canada/trout-river/), where this site lists 12 more places to see, 11 km from the centre.

Its coordinates are 49.45841, -57.96832; the nearest main airport is Montreal / Pierre Elliott Trudeau International Airport (YUL, Montréal), 1,268 km as the crow flies.
