Located at the confluence of the Fraser and Nechako rivers, where Highways 97 and 16 launch road-trippers on a variety of adventures, PG is a regional centre for shopping, arts and sports, where industry and innovation coexist, outdoor recreation is a way of life, and northern wilderness and urban amenities converge.

We came here two days in a row on our family visit to Prince George, it is a great place for middle school and under aged children! The park is immediately adjacent to Exploration place and includes and excellent and well kept outdoor playground for all ages (with free washrooms onsite, a huge plus!) as well as a great little splash pad area, plus the train, and children's garden. Hours of fun both indoors and out. I would highly recommend a visit and plan to stay a few hours at least.

We don't have a boat but we go to West Lake often. First of all it is close, second, it is well kept. Change rooms, showers, tables, boat launching, place for grilling, playing ball,toilets, large parking lot. The water could be a little warmer but good. Our friends and us we go out for picnic. The bottom line is it's good for young and old.

I had visited NLEW in December of 2018 but was unable to dine at their bistro at that time (had other dinner arrangements) but did purchase some of their lovely fruit wine and promised to dine there upon my next visit to Prince George. The food (I had tapas) and service was simply amazing! Excellent selection of tapas and other dishes and, of course, a nice selection of fruit wines. If you are not into(fruit) wines, they also have a selection of craft beers to choose from. This is not a bistro where one can expect huge portions at discount pricing; it is rather a culinary venue for tasty and lovingly prepared dishes with high-end ingredients. Staff is enthusiastic and cheerful; a sign of great management. Definitely must return there again :) Bernd Williams Lake, BC
8. Connaught Hill Park
Overall Ratings
4.5 based on 19 reviews
Reviewed By Tor56 - Prince George, Canada
This park is centrally located and easily accessible, either by car or on foot during the summer (a little more difficult in the winter as I believe the road is closed off) and the yellow stairs going up to it may be covered with ice or snow. During the summer months this park is just beautiful with flowers scattered throughout but the main garden is kind of a sunken garden which makes it an ideal place for special event photo's such as weddings, grads, etc. There are also picnic tables which makes it nice for residents and tourists alike to enjoy a picnic lunch or just to sit and watch the activities and take in the 360 degree views of PG. I highly recommend a visit to this park.

It's a tradition for us now to stop in at Trench whenever we are in Prince George. It's easily the best place to hang out and have a pint and a bite to eat in PG. The beer is absolutely delicious, above all expectations. The food menu changes according to specials and never disappoints. Great, friendly service everytime and a fun yet relaxing atmosphere.

You have to try the Thursday night makers lab. So much fun. Can't say enough good stuff about it. Bring the kids or go on your own. Look up what special things they have going on. There seems to be something for everyone.
