Fundy Trail Provincial Park Interpretive Centre
Salmon River
The Big Salmon Interpretive Centre is built in the style of an 1800s logging bunkhouse in a picturesque setting overlooking the Big Salmon River, where a community with a sawmill, inn, school, homes and churches once stood. During the golden age of sail, the thriving shipbuilding and lumber industry led to the construction of over 500 ships in nearby St. Martins and surrounding areas — once described as one of the richest regions in Canada. Learn about this fascinating history and local stories through interpretive panels.
