Questions
How far is Lewisporte from the Farewell ferry terminal?+
About 74 km. Route 335 from the terminal, then Routes 331, 340 and 341 down to Lewisporte.
I have just come off the Fogo ferry. Lewisporte or back to Gander?+
Lewisporte is the shorter of the two: 74 km, against 86 km back to the Gander terminal. If you are flying out, Gander is where you are going anyway. If you have a night left, Lewisporte is nearer and is a town with services.
Is there anywhere to stop between Farewell and Lewisporte?+
Nothing the open map can name. A sweep of the corridor on 21 September 2026 found five features within 1.2 km of the drive, and none has a name. That is a gap in the map, not a verdict on the road. If you know what is along it, tell us.
Is the drive from Farewell to Lewisporte a hard one?+
It is paved and short, but Route 335 and Route 331 are two-lane back roads with few communities on them. The ferry decides when you start, and an evening sailing means an unlit drive (see the moose note above).
