Community Profile - McBride

Community Facts

If you like the outdoors, you’ll love McBride. Situated on Highway 16 in the Robson Valley, the scenery is magnificent. Camping, fishing, hiking, horseback riding and ski touring, heli-skiing and snow mobiling in the winter all attract visitors. The community offers a good variety of accommodation, RV sites, restaurants and services.

A history rich in fur trading, trapping and prospectors can be relived in the local museum.

Koeneman Regional Park hosts a theatre and art gallery in an original farmhouse. Horseshoe Lake Bird Sanctuary is a stopping place for swans, Canada Geese, ducks and herons.

And visitors will enjoy McBride’s pride in developing a railway theme to reflect the community’s importance in the Grand Trunk Railway history.
