Besides skiing and snowboarding, other active pursuits include snowmobiling, snowshoeing, sledding, dog-sledding, hiking, caving, ice climbing, snow kiting and helicopter tours, or you can simply relax in your hot tub, by the fire in the comfort of your luxury chalet or at the Resort’s beautiful lakeside Aveda-concept spa ‘Found’.
Newfoundland can be a surprising place, as well as an unspoiled, uncrowded wonderland a mere five hour flight from London Gatwick. Since it became Canada’s tenth province in 1949, the rest of the country must take note as Newfoundland grows in popularity as a tourist and second-home destination.
You may also bump into Sir Alex Ferguson this winter at “Humber,” as the resort is affectionately known by its stalwart fans.
In August, the Manchester United manager received an Orvis fly fishing rod and a trip to Humber when he was presented with the Newfound Resorts LMA Managers Performance annual award for the 2006-07 season in recognition of his achievement in guiding United to the Premiership crown.

Combine the action of skiing at Marble Mountain – North America’s Best Kept Secret, with the relaxation of ‘Found’ Spa – a winning combination. ‘Found’ Spa is nestled in the unspoiled forests of the Humber Valley, where a million trees replace a million people and the crystal clear waters of Deer Lake, teeming with life, gently mingle with the Humber River. A place where the air is so pure and the peace and tranquility is a thousand miles from the hectic pace of daily life.
