The town is a great escape thanks to its combination of natural beauty and community spirit. It features a long list of activities that are sure to delight visitors who make their way there. Start your adventure at the welcoming Princeton Visitor Centre.
Capture a memory with a welcome flag representing your country of origin and join the “Princeton Welcomes the World” social media contest. It’s a fun way to share your journey and connect with fellow travellers. You can also take a virtual tour of the Red Ochre Bluffs to view the red earth used by the Similkameen people for their pictographs and paints.

Make sure to do the bronze sculpture walk, which showcases the fine local artistry and is the reason why Princeton is the Bronze Sculpture Capital of Canada. There are 21 amazing sculptures in all, but you will need to take your time as they are spread out throughout the town.
