Visit the Peace River Regional District

Nestled in northeastern British Columbia, the Peace River Regional District (PRRD) is a place where history and natural beauty intertwine. It is home to Indigenous groups like the Beaver (Dane-zaa), Cree, Dene and Métis peoples, whose rich history spans thousands of years. These communities formed deep connections with the land, using the river and its resources for sustenance and trade. Today, the region thrives with a diverse economy in agriculture, forestry and energy, while remaining vital to the eight First Nations communities who have long stewarded the land.

The PRRD is a captivating blend of natural beauty, adventure and cultural experiences. It features the iconic Mile O of the Alaska Highway in Dawson Creek and one of Canada's five UNESCO Global Geoparks in Tumbler Ridge. The landscape, marked by rolling hills, expansive forests and the mighty Peace River, provides a stunning backdrop for outdoor enthusiasts and nature lovers.

Whether exploring cultural landmarks, embarking on outdoor adventures or relaxing in tranquility, the Peace River Regional District promises an unforgettable experience.
