McBride Visitor Centre

Just got off the phone with Molly, what an incredibly helpful lady. She even made a call for me to gather information, then called me back. Would highly recommend her to help you with travel plans in the area. Thanks again Molly!

Super helpful staff, clean bathrooms, and a lovely gallery full of such beautiful artwork!

What we thought would be a whistle stop on our VIA Rail journey from Jasper to Prince George turned out to be a much longer halt at the McBride Rail Station. We were probably waiting for a freight train to pass. So we were allowed to get down and stretch our legs at McBride. We found the building to be quite interesting because of the Visitor Centre being located here. We found quite a good collection of free pamphlets and maps of the interesting places of British Columbia and particularly of the Rocky Mountains. There is also a gallery of paintings and art works done by the local artists on display, the 'Whistle Stop Gallery’. There is also a café and coffee shop called ‘The Beanery’.

Nice place and friendly staff. The gift shop has very unique things. You have to ask to have a look at the train model, it‘s amazing!

Denise and Clarissa are wonderful tourism ambassadors. Really go above and beyond to help make your visit memorable! Hubby and I truly appreciated their knowledge of local events, artisans and activity options. We'll be back.
