Named after the Prince of Wales, Princeton is situated amongst the foothills of
the Cascade Mountains and is often referred to as the southern gateway to the
interior of British Columbia.
Located 133 km (83 mi) east of Hope
on the meandering highway 3, Princeton's combination of surrounding valleys and
mountains make it a natural setting for a wide variety of outdoor activities,
including fishing, trail riding, snowmobiling, golfing and mountain biking. Princeton
was once a gold and copper mining town and visitors can often be found searching
for nuggets along the bed of the Tulameen River. Attractions that further encompass
Princeton's frontier history include the Princeton
Museum, which offers an impressive collection of minerals, fossils and historic
artifacts, and Princeton
Castle, an architectural masterpiece that was built in the early 1900's to
resemble a medieval castle. Downtown Princeton is home to a variety of quaint
shops and cozy cafés.
