The internal temperature remains constant all year and activity partners provide experiences tailored to the relative skills of the participants. Other introductory experiences that can be organized for Resort guests through our preferred professional partners include rock climbing, repelling (abseiling), power kiting, kite surfing, canyoning in the Steady Brook Falls and snorkeling with salmon in the Humber River. In the early spring after the melt white water rafting is an experience enjoyed by many. Horse Riding As with mountain biking the best trails can be found on the old logging roads which are by far the greatest way to get out and about and see the varied Humber Valley countryside. The Resort has partnered with local stables to provide a variety of lessons and tours. Mountain biking in the Humber Valley Many of the best rides are found among the hundreds of kilometres of logging roads and transmission lines that surround the Humber Valley region. Bike rentals, safety equipment and trail maps can be arranged from both the Resort and local cycle shops. Bird Watching The west coast of Newfoundland is home to a large variety of birds, including bald eagles, owls, warblers, blue jays and several species of duck.
