Fundy Trail Provincial Park Interpretive Centre

The Interpretive Centre is built in the style of an 1800s logging bunkhouse in a lovely setting overlooking the Big Salmon River, where a community with a sawmill, inn, school, homes and churches once stood on the banks of the river. With the flourishing shipbuilding and lumber industry during the golden age of sail, a thriving lumber industry supported the building of over 500 ships in nearby St. Martins and area, once described as one of the richest region in Canada. Learn about this fascinating history and local stories through interpretive panels and an informative video. From the Interpretive Centre, visit the adjacent heritage sawmill and old-fashioned cookhouse for a lovely meal. Take a walk along the riverside trails, and engage with knowledgeable staff. The Interpretive Centre also features a boutique with NB made products and other souvenirs.
