Route 436, also known as L'Anse aux Meadows Road, is a 29.1adj=midNaNadj=mid north-south highway on the Great Northern Peninsula of Newfoundland in the Canadian province of Newfoundland and Labrador. Its southern terminus is an intersection on Route 430 (Viking Trail/Great Northern Peninsula Highway), and its northern terminus is at L'Anse aux Meadows, a world-famous archaeological site.
Route 436 begins at an intersection with Route 430 (Great Northern Peninsula Highway/Viking Trail) just a few kilometres northwest of St. Anthony. It heads northeast through rural areas to cross a couple of brooks before having an intersection with Route 437 (Cape Onion Road). The highway now begins winding its way along the coastline as it passes through St. Lunaire-Griquet and Gunners Cove. Route 436 has an intersection with a local road leading to Quirpon before it passes through Noddy Bay and Straitsview (also known as Spillars Cove). The highway now meets a short local road to Hay Cove before entering L'Anse aux Meadows, where it meets a road leading to the visitor center before coming to an end at an intersection with Norstead Road.
