Peak Season

Happy trails.

While many of the province’s ski resorts continue to be plagued by warm, dry weather and low snowfall, it’s much better news at Sun Peaks, B.C.’s second largest ski-region just 45 minutes from Kamloops. With incredible access to cross-country skiing, downhill skiing and snowboarding, and snowshoeing, the municipality resort offers a truly picturesque setting, nestled between three mountains. At the epicentre rests a charming European-style ski-in, ski-out family-friendly village brimming with quaint shops, intimate cafes, friendly restaurants, and cozy accommodations. The destination resort also hosts the Winter Okanagan Wine Festival, one of the premiere food and wine celebrations on the culinary circuit.
