The Transatlantic Cable Monument

TAT-1 was the first transatlantic cable to connect the United Kingdom with Canada and the United States of America. The cable remained in service from September 25, 1956, until 1978. On the first day of public service, there were 588 calls from London to the United States and 119 to Canada.

Her Majesty’s Telegraph Ship Monarch was used to lay the 2,240-mile cable from Gallanach Bay, along the Sound of Kerrera near Oban in Argyll and Bute, Scotland, to Clarenville, Newfoundland.

The Transatlantic Cable Monument was erected to commemorate the 50th anniversary of the landing of TAT-1, connecting North America to Europe.

At Clarenville, the cable end is floated on drums and pulled ashore from the ship.

The monument is located next to the old cable station on Cormack Drive.

The Bare Mountain Trail

The Bare Mountain Trail is a three-kilometre loop through lush forests punctuated by rocky promontories. It starts and ends at the Manitoba Professional Building on Manitoba Drive.

The trail is best for hill walking rather than hill climbing. The route follows contour lines wherever possible to make the ascent as easy. The steeper parts are assisted by stairs, while the rest stops give impressive views.

The best view is at the summit, which is 157.2 meters above sea level. From there, you have a clear picture of all points of the route. As tourists walk closer to White Hills Ski Resort, there is an impressive, wooded hill that forms the shoulders of the Shoal Harbour River Valley.
