Western Arctic Regional Visitors Centre - Inuvik, Northwest Territories

Jane Meagher

We were served by Amber. She was so helpful and provided us with much useful information. They also prepared authentic certificates for us attesting to the fact we had crossed the Arctic circle and had dipped our toes in the Arctic Ocean. Then, when she realized it was my birthday she had the whole WARUC staff write birthday wishes in the book Dempster Highway which they offered me as well as a wonderful poster of the Dempster Highway in the autumn. Thank you Amber and your team for your warm welcome.

Amber et son équipe nous ont tellement bien servis, nous donnant beaucoup d’information, nos certificats pour le Cercle Polair et pour avoir trempé nos pieds dans l’Ocean Arctique. Puis, en apprenant que c’etait Mon anniversaire, j’ai reçu un livre sur le Dempster Highway, signé par toute l’equipe, et un poster du Dempster en automne comme cadeau. Merci à vous tous!

Merci aux hôtesses dont Leah qui nous a donné l'heure juste sur les activités courantes avec une belle énergie autochtone nordique

A must visit if you are in Inuvik! They are open 7 days a week, but limited hours. Write outside the visitor center there is a craft shop where you can see sometimes local artists doing carving or selling them at a much more discounted price than you would get at the stores. It is actually quite peaceful to sit and have or lunch or picnic outside the visitor center, beautiful skies and view of a very colorful hospital. Inside, there is a lot of information about the history of people and the wildlife in the area.

It’s a free museum! So informative and cozy. You can get certificates here (till it runs out)
It exhibits local arts, culture and wildlife.

War leider zwei Tage geschlossen wie wir dort waren.
In den NWT sind sie noch nicht so auf Besucher eingestellt.
