Xwísten Experiences, Visitor Facilities
DNA worked with the Xwísten First Nation to develop culturally appropriate facilities to accommodate tourists looking for a cultural interpretive experience in the region. Located at the confluence of the Fraser River and the Bridge River, there are three key areas that Xwísten wanted to profile: their fishing rocks, their ancient village site (with more than 80 identified pit house depressions) and their winter village.
The project included the following:
- Winter Village - interpretive signage
- Ancient Village - interpretive signage
- Fishing Rocks - interpretive signage, viewing platforms, covered seating, washroom facilities, parking and a covered eating area were developed at the fishing rocks.
This project supported Xwísten to maintain and expand their offerings to tourists in the region.
