Forests for the World

Description

Forest for the World Park is a network of dozens of kilometres of trails on Cranbrook Hill, within city limits. FFTW has something for everyone from fishing at Shane Lake, to picnicking under one of the shelters, or visiting the newest attraction, the traditional Aboriginal pit-house. Some trails provide satisfying views of Prince George and area, and the highest point in the city, at about 880m, can be found within the park.
