Prince George is located at the centre of BC, and is easily accessible by road or air from major centres such as Vancouver, Edmonton, and Calgary.

The city is surrounded by untamed wilderness that can be enjoyed in all seasons. Escape to the rugged terrain of our forests, mountains, lakes, and rivers for a true backcountry adventure.

During the summer you can go hiking, swimming, and boating, or hit the trails on your mountain bike or ATV. In winter, head out into the snow on cross-country skis, snowshoes, or snowmobile. Go downhill skiing and snowboarding on one of our nearby ski hills. Prince George also offers great opportunities for sport fishing and hunting.

When you’re not exploring the outdoors, discover the many cultural, educational, and entertainment opportunities our city has to offer. Visit our art galleries, museums, and specialty boutiques. Take in a hockey game, a play, or a symphony concert. With so much going on, it’s no wonder Prince George is known as BC’s Northern Capital.
