Sports & Recreation

No doubt about it, this is a sports crazy town. Whether playing sandlot softball or watching the Prince George Cougars take to the ice in front of 6000 screaming fans, residents of the city always 'give 110 per cent.' So prepare for action and excitement. And prepare to be part of it.

Walk, run, bike, hike, ski, snowboard, snowshoe, skate, swim, rollerblade or simply hang a fishing rod off the back of your boat. You'll always be on the move in a city that has literally thousands and thousands of acres of wilderness as its own private backyard.  All manner of public and private recreational facilities will keep you as active as you want to be. Even a walk in any one of Prince George's many parks is sure to yield up unexpected fun and discovery. 

Sandblast, snowmobile drags, hit-to-pass and over-the-line snowball are authentic northern events that reflect the unique, inventive and adventurous spirit of the people living here.
