Summit where the CPR crossed the Selkirks in 1885; Discovery Centre and monument on Rogers Pass.

Rogers Pass National Historic Site marks the summit where the Canadian Pacific Railway crossed the Selkirk Mountains in 1885, a pivotal moment in Canada's confederation story. Located within Glacier National Park along the Trans-Canada Highway, the site encompasses ruins of the original CPR right-of-way, ancient cedar groves, and the Rogers Pass Discovery Centre. For touring cyclists, it is one of the most historically resonant high-elevation waypoints on any cross-Canada journey through the Selkirks.
