Visit Mackenzie
Where the wild roam free…
Located in the heart of The Great Wilderness, Mackenzie is a place where the wild roam free. Surrounded by the Rocky Mountain Trench, expansive forests, pristine lakes, and mountain landscapes, this northern British Columbia community offers direct access to hiking and mountain biking trails, fishing, paddling, wildlife viewing, snowmobiling, and backcountry exploration. Mackenzie is a place where connecting to nature is as simple as walking out the front door.

On your way here, visit our info caboose!
As you turn left onto Hwy 39, you can't help but see our big red caboose. Possibly the most charming info center in the province (maybe even the country), it is full of friendly people and all kinds of travel information on the Mackenzie region and other north-western destinations.
Situated in a refurbished railway caboose, this unique visitor centre is a historical curiosity from an era gone by. Nearby is a rest area that offers picnic tables and clean washrooms for your convenience.
Inside, you’ll find free maps and tourism guides, travel updates and advisories, planning tips and a list of services and sights to see. They offer a small variety of snacks and drinks as well as a selection of unique mementos for purchase.
And sometimes they even have cookies...
