Few communities in British Columbia have a history as closely bound to the Canadian Pacific Railway as Revelstoke. Set on the Columbia River between the Selkirk and Monashee mountains, the city developed as a railway centre during the building of Canada’s transcontinental line. The Revelstoke Railway Museum preserves that connection, while Mount Revelstoke National Park rises immediately west of town and Rogers Pass in Glacier National Park lies on the historic rail corridor to the east. Today, Revelstoke is also known for mountain sports and a downtown shaped by rail-era commercial buildings.
