Quesnel Visitor InfoCentre Located at 705 Carson Avenue, Quesnel, BC, V2J 2B7. Nearby is the Hudson's Bay Store, which sold supplies to the miners and homesteaders in the area. The log building was erected in 1867 and recently was restored. The Riverfront Trail System was established by the City of Quesnel to give residents and visitors access to the river environment and to provide a scenic, peaceful circle tour through the community. Points of interest are clearly marked along the entire trail system with plaques telling of our history and development throughout the years.
Parking is ample at various entry points to the trail system.
Anything and everything you wanted to know about Gold Country can be found at the Quesnel Museum. Located at LeBourdais Park, this is one of the finer museums in the BC Interior. The Quesnel Museum began with a donation of the Barlow collection and the medical instruments of Dr. G.R. Baker which were stored in the post office basement until the present museum was built in 1963. If there is one event that captures the spirit and pride of the Cariboo, it is Quesnel's Billy Barker Days held each third weekend in July. Organized by an army of dedicated volunteers, this 4 day festival is truly a fun family event.
