Grand Falls-Windsor

The landscape around Grand Falls-Windsor is defined by the forested Exploits River valley, which has shaped both the urban form and local economy. Set in central Newfoundland’s interior, the town grew around the river’s hydroelectric potential and its former newsprint industry. Grand Falls-Windsor was incorporated in 1991 through the amalgamation of the neighbouring communities of Grand Falls and Windsor. Today it serves as an important regional centre, with riverbanks, wooded surroundings and road links that make it a practical base for exploring inland Newfoundland.
