What to expect

The Albright Visitor Centre is a historic structure located near the North Entrance of Yellowstone National Park. It was built in 1909 as bachelor officers' quarters for the cavalry troops who protected the park before the creation of the National Park Service. The centre provides information about the park's natural and cultural treasures, and offers exhibits, trip-planning information, and a Yellowstone Forever Park Store. Visitors can learn about the park's cultural history, wildlife, and geology through interactive displays and specialty movies. The centre is also a great place for families, with a self-guided Junior Ranger Program available for children ages four and up. The programme allows children to earn a special Junior Ranger patch by completing activities as they explore the park
