The Mount Robson Visitor Centre is a must stop while visiting the park. The two floor building has an information desk, gift shop and observation deck on the main floor with a small museum downstairs (free). The staff can advise on hiking trail conditions.

The museum exhibits explain the Indigenous context of the park and mountain, as well as early mountaineering exploits, local wildlife and more. It's a great place to be on a rainy or overcast day.

The Centre also has free wi-fi. The 1km long Journey Through Time interpretive trail starts behind the Visitor Centre.
