Lewis Hills

Nature
Lewis Hills is a mountain subrange of the Long Range Mountains on Newfoundland’s west coast, stretching along the Gulf of Saint Lawrence between Stephenville and Corner Brook. Far more than a simple hill, it includes some of the island’s most distinctive high country and holds major geological importance as an ophiolite and peridotite complex within the internationally known Humber Arm Allochthon, preserving rock linked to deep oceanic crust and mantle. The area is also a backcountry hiking destination reached in part by the International Appalachian Trail. Its highest point, The Cabox at 814 metres, is the highest elevation on Newfoundland.
