Tourism BC Is Expecting More people To Come In The New Year

The BC Wildfire effected tourism in the North this past year.

Tourism bc is hoping to have it pick back up with many winter activities available in 2018.

CEO, Erica Hummel says there’s almost too many to name.

“There’s skiing, cross-country skiing, the winery is a great place to bring family and friends, Goodsir nature park is a great place to go walk around, horse-drawn slay rides, New Years parties planned all over town, and of course there’s always our great hockey to watch as well.”

Hummel also recommends snowshoeing in the ancient forest or if you prefer to go ice fishing just stop by the visitor centre to pick up your gear.

Tourism in Prince Geroge did jump during August, but this was due to people have to relocate because of the Wildfire, and although it was unfortunate this gave an opportunity for people outside the city to see what PG has to offer.

“The summer was so hampered by the wildfires and the floods that were here, so we are expecting a number of people to come up, I mean this is going to be a good opportunity for people to get together who weren’t able to earlier in the year.
