Prince George is an ideal basecamp for exploring Northern British Columbia and the adventures it is home to. Here, visitors are already playing a key role in writing a new chapter for this city as many locals look to tourism as a way to transition from past industries. This town is already re-thinking energy, with an innovative system that uses waste from a nearby timber mill to heat buildings. As one of the first communities in Canada to create an adaptation plan addressing forest fire risks, Prince George is setting a precedent for how a place can responsibly host and take care of visitors. A small passionate group is currently building new attractions that improve the community’s wellbeing, create jobs and attract visitors. Every visit here supports a community that is redefining what it means to flourish in the North.
