Conche is one of Newfoundland’s best kept secrets. If you are planning a trip to the Northern Peninsula, we’d definitely recommend adding a couple of days so you can visit Conche. Take Route 434 from Route 433 just north of Roddicton. It’s a 24 km gravel road that’s scheduled to be paved starting in 2018. Make sure you have a full tank of gas before heading down to Conche, there is no gas station in town.
There is so much to see in Conche, that in addition to this page we have a few more pages:
- Captain Coubelongue Trail
- French Shore Interpretation Centre (The French Shore Tapestry)
- Plane Crash Site
- town of Conche
The trail starts at the plane crash site in Conche. It’s a gravel ATV trail that takes you up a pretty steep hill to the top of a ridge. Looking west you see Conche and a waterfall across the harbour. Looking east, you see the Grey Islands. We visited in June and also saw several icebergs.
