Self-guided audio tour

Your phone is your personal storyteller

Transport yourself to 1896 and discover Canada’s largest group of original wooden buildings representing the fur trade. Listen to stories on your own device to be immersed in the rich history of Fort St. James as you walk through the beautiful grounds. Complimentary Wi-Fi is available to download the audio tour.

To begin the story, walk towards the lakefront path to find the green sign. Scan the QR code with your phone’s camera to begin.

More signs are placed throughout the Fort; scanning each code will begin the next chapter in the story.

Visit the garden for even more stories

Costumed interpreters will be working in the garden next to the Staff House. Stop by. They are happy to answer any questions you might have.
