ARRIVAL &
DEPARTURE
Travel
to Owl’s Nest Lodge can be either by air or ground. It is our recommendation that if you are flying, that you fly
to Gander International Airport (Newfoundland), which offers
connections from most major North American centers.
If, because of arrival or departure times it is necessary to
overnight in Gander, we have a special arrangement with the Hotel
Gander for our guests to receive preferential rates.
Your package includes ground transportation to and from Gander
at the start and completion of your hunt to our base camp.
If you choose to drive to Newfoundland then you would proceed
to North Sydney, Nova Scotia and take a six hour ferry crossing to
Port Aux Basques, Newfoundland and then a five hour drive to our base
camp in the town of Buchans. Most
people schedule their ferry crossing in the night so that they can
avail of the onboard cabins.
