An addendum: lots of treats available for different preferences: hot dogs and hamburgers at the Masonic Hall, stew and baked bread at Jasper House and gourmet full service meals at Johnson's Cafe in the Hotel Selkirk. It can get very hot in the river valley, so sunscreen is a necessity, as is water and hats. Can be a lot of walking if you have a mobility issue, but there is also a train, streetcar service and plenty of seating throughout the park. This is one of Edmonton's most unique attractions and certainly worth a visit.

Fantastic way to spend a day. Visitors board a train that takes them back to the fur trading fort circa 1846. From there, visitors can walk forward through history, stopping in 1885, 1905 and 1920.
