Fringed by the majestic scenery of sheer cliff faces which tower to around 600 metres, it is easy to see that Western Brook Pond had it's beginnings as a glacier carved fjord.
The cliffs, which belong to the Long Range Mountains (and therefore the Appalachian Mountains), were created after glaciers carved the fjord out of the plateau. Eventually, once the glaciers melted, the land formed over the entrance to the fjord and cut it off from the sea. After many years the trapped salt water was replaced by fresh water.
