Moore’s Meadow Park Trail

https://hikingprincegeorge.com/hikes/moores-meadow-park-trail

Wooded paths descend into a glacial kettle and open meadow within the city. Several entrances and connecting trails make it easy to vary the walk, with a climb back out at the end.

1. Getting there and parking

The principal entrance is on Foothills Boulevard, approximately 1 km south of the Nechako River. Begin from a signed park entrance and note which access you used: several neighbourhood paths feed into the same meadow. The published 1–3 km outing choices describe selected loops, while the wider park contains more than 5 km of paths.

2. Walking the route

Descend from the rim through the wooded slope into the meadow, then choose a connecting path or loop suited to the time available. The descent is the main change of grade, and you will regain that height on the return. There are several branching paths rather than one prescribed circuit. The meadow is a designated off-leash area, but that should not be extended automatically to every approach or adjacent street; follow the posted boundaries and keep dogs under control around wildlife. Wet ground, snow and ice can make the sloping entrances slippery even when the flatter meadow feels straightforward.
