Terrace is a city in northwestern British Columbia located along the Skeena River between the Coast Mountains and the interior plateau. It serves as an important regional service centre for communities across the northwestern part of the province.
The city developed through forestry, mining and transportation industries connected to the Skeena River corridor. Railways and highways linking the interior with coastal ports helped establish Terrace as a strategic location for trade and regional development.
Today Terrace supports a diverse local economy that includes public services, resource industries and tourism. The surrounding mountains, rivers and forests offer opportunities for hiking, fishing and other outdoor activities that attract residents and visitors throughout the year.
