Gilley Pond Camp

Gilley Pond Camp is a backcountry campsite situated along the Northern Traverse, an unmarked and rugged multi-day route through Gros Morne National Park's Long Range Mountains.

The site serves as one of the key waypoints on the traverse, helping hikers navigate the sub-arctic plateau terrain. The camp sits directly at Gilley Pond and includes a bear box and an outhouse that faces the water.

Hikers consistently rate the surrounding area among the most spectacular on the entire traverse, with expansive glacial-swept rolling hills, numerous waterfalls, and clear ponds visible from camp and the ridges beyond.

Those with extra time are encouraged to linger here before continuing on toward Hardings Pond or Mark's Pond, depending on the chosen itinerary.
