Rocky Mountain House National Historic Site

I was truly impressed with the people in the area from live Black Smiting demonstrations to Matie dancing. The people were really amazing and added a great deal to the experience. Covid has changed a few things but still fully enjoyable and well worth the trip. Access with the park pass was a great surprise. My 6 year old learned a good deal from a puppet show and the museum was well layed out to maintain social distancing

Mostly interesting for the up close and personal buffalo experience. Perhaps if you’re CRAZY into fir trading history I suppose this could be a destination for you but for 99% of people this place is a cute 30 minute stop on their way to the mountains and not something to centre a trip around.

Absolutely stunning park. Quiet. Underrated. Good interpretive parts, and nice series of short trails. The trappers cabins were super fun and a great way to introduce friends to camping. Staff were stellar and friendly. We'll be back for sure!

Some nice walking trails with historical information about the fur trade and David Thompson. The visitors centre has a small gift shop and museum and they put on a daily puppet show at 2pm (very unique experience).

Such a beautiful and educational spot! We especially enjoyed watching the blacksmith work. Our boys were engaged and equally as delighted when they received their very own freshly forged nail from the blacksmith.We also took in a live beading demonstration by a Parks Canada staff member. So interesting!Our boys received an activity booklet to fill out from the friendly staff at the visitor centre. Once we finished meandering around the site, they brought their completed booklets back to the visitor center and were gifted a souvenir and completion certificate. We had two very happy little kids!

Great place for camping and have a quick walk, you can understand more about the history of Canada

What a great experience!!! Wish we'd been prepared for how long it would take to go through! Learned alot, was very impressed with the knowledge of the staff and how well they were in character!

Great out-of-the-way place to visit. If you like learning about Alberta's history and Fort's that are older than almost all European settlements (with exception of Fort Vermilion and Chipewyan) in Alberta then this is an interesting place to go. You can even book a time to stay in a teepee or trappers tent and see some plains buffalo!
