Parks & Trails

Hiking opportunities abound in the Prince George area, from day excursions to backwoods backpacking to horseback tours to, believe it or not, Llama trekking. Great rock climbing, caving, and in the winter, ice-climbing can be found in every direction. 

From tiny neighbourhood hideaways to sprawling all-day adventures, more than 120 parks call Prince George home. And that's just within city limits.

Playgrounds, a waterspray park, picnic facilities, beautiful hilltop flower gardens, bird-watching opportunities or a simple nature walk. Each park and every trail offers its own unique glimpse into this city of nature.

And for those who want to get away from it all and still be home in time for dinner and a hot tub, a number of lakefront beaches, riverside rambles and forest walks can be found within 30 kilometres (20 miles) of town.
