A full service community, the District of Chetwynd in northeast British Columbia's Peace River Country charms visitors and locals with its abundance of natural beauty and resources. Located in the foothills of the Canadian Rockies at the junction of Highways 97 and 29, Chetwynd is surrounded by forests, mountains and lakes, and offers both winter and summer adventures such as hiking, fishing, boating, skiing and snowmobiling. A state-of-the-art Recreation Complex and Leisure Pool also offers the opportunity for indoor recreation.
