Quidi Vidi Lake
The venue for the Royal St. John's Regatta, North America's oldest sporting event, and a lakeside loop trail that is a favorite for locals to walk and jog.
The Royal St. John's Regatta has been held here since 1818 and is considered the oldest continuously held sporting event in North America. The whole city gets a holiday on race day, depending on the weather. On ordinary days, the loop trail around the lake is about 4 km long and offers views of Signal Hill, and there is a rowing museum by the lake. From here, you can walk on to Quidi Vidi Village.
