In 2014 July-August myself and boyfriend hitchhiked Newfoundland as did a fellow friend and another traveller I met in Trinity East, (fab place to go) The people of Newfoundland are relaxed you will have an AMAZING time hitch hiking, If you talk to the drivers in a lovely way and actually care about their stories and them as humans you will no doubt be given food and sometimes accommodation!
Newfoundlanders are The most helpful people in Canada and my god you will have a great time! If it isn't legal then you would never know. You rarely see police drive by in rural Newfoundland. The places are easy to get to as localss usually want to hello.
.St John's ..check with highway police for inner city hitch hiking.

Also, a few roadways around the St. John’s metro area, like the Pitt’s Memorial Highway, forbid any pedestrian and cyclist access.

A $15 bus ride to Whitbourne will save the hassle of trying to get out of the city and off the Avalon Peninsula. You stand a much better chance of scoring a good ride quick from here than in town! At the very least get a cab to the overpass. The cabbie will know where you mean ;) but the bus is probably cheaper and more effective.

I hitchhiked through western Newfoundland and across mainland Labrador back in September, 2012 and loved it. Gros Morne National Park is a must see, and the trans-labrador highway is unfogettable. This is easily my favorite province of [Canada]. [[User:Thewindandrain|Thewindandrain]] ([[User talk:Thewindandrain|talk]]) 04:36, 31 July 2014 (UTC)
