La Manche Provincial Park, Provincial park near St. John's, Canada.
La Manche Provincial Park spans 14.39 square kilometers of woodland terrain, featuring waterfalls, ponds, and a network of hiking trails.
The original settlement of La Manche, established in the 1840s by George Melvin, was abandoned in 1966 following a severe winter storm.
The park maintains the heritage of Newfoundland settlements through preserved remnants of the former fishing community and educational displays.
The park operates from mid-May to mid-September with 82 campsites, comfort stations, drinking water access, and electrical connections for visitors.
A suspension bridge crosses the La Manche River, connecting visitors to the ruins of the former village and coastal hiking paths.
