Things to Do  

Museum

Museum, Norman Wells

 agcw Says:  An interesting little museum detailing some of the history of the place. Best part: had some really good films to watch on the building of the CANOL pipeline and other local events. Very friendly manager and the best souvenir and curio shop in town.

Rayuka Inn: Unbelievably friendly!, Norman Wells

 agcw Says:  The inn/hotel itself is little run down but everything is there in terms of clean linen and rooms. They dropped off a drip coffee machine and some of the rooms had microwaves. This is a budget accommodation and expectations should be matched to that. The TV signal, should...

Restaurant at the MacKenzie Inn: Great caribou stir-fry, Norman Wells

 agcw Says:  The hotel housing this restaurant looks a bit run down and dubious. However, we had a very good meal at the hotel and everybody enjoyed their options. I had the Caribou Stir-Fry with pepper sauce. Excellent. I was told the hotpot was good too.

 A very modern and beautiful building - seems out of place! Many of the buildings are very old and rustic. FYI - Check out the town site: Norman Wells

Small town a long way from anywhere

 NW is a jumping off point for hunting, canoeing and hiking trips. There is no road in in summer but there is an airport/float-plane lake and you could reach it by river. The reason for the town's...
