What Skiers Say About Sun Peaks

Sun Peaks attracts primarily intermediate to advanced skiers and snowboarders, with families being a significant visitor group. Reviewers consistently highlight the large terrain spread across three mountains, minimal lift queues even during peak periods, and exceptionally well-groomed runs. The resort is described as quiet and uncrowded compared to other BC destinations, with a small pedestrian village offering ski-in/ski-out accommodation. Common criticisms centre on limited restaurant options requiring advance booking, lack of vibrant nightlife or après-ski atmosphere, and variable snow conditions with some seasons experiencing rain or thin coverage. Several users note the resort can feel over-groomed for those seeking powder.

As an avid skiing family, Sun Peaks tics all the boxes. The pedestrian village is authentic and amazing. There are runs to satisfy any ability level and they can all be accessed easily from a fantastic network of lifts. Sun Peaks will always be a favourite of our family.

We arrived after dark but it was an easy arrival! We would have loved to have help to get to our rooms as they were in another building, but arrived after the day staff had gone home, nonetheless once we got to our rooms the beds were comfortable and rooms well appointed!

The skiing was amazing from the start
and we had just a marvelous time! We really had an amazing time
At Sun Peaks!

The resort is really small, so the night life is kind of non-existent, and the restaurant options are very limited.
But the skiing is awesome - when the snow is good, obviously.
There's lots of terrain and lots of options.
I'd def go back.

The resort has many runs for all different ski types. The lifts take you all over the mountain so you don’t have to do a lot of walking. The ski resort was design designed by skier Nancy Green rain so it’s really well laid out.

I bought my day ticket online to save a few bucks.
It was Feb 6 2025 with beautiful sunshine but a very cold morning.
Reportedly there was not as much snow as normal but I wouldn't have noticed.
Conditions were good. There were no lines.
All was fine and had a great day.
Turns out a movie was also being filmed in the village that day.
Friendly people.

Just 3-4 hours away from Vancouver. Totally worth a visit. I was there between Christmas and New Years Eve and there was almost no line up at the chairlifts. The daypass is much cheaper than Whistler.

Sun Peaks Resort is a great place to visit. The mountain offers lots of terrain that make it a great choice for a multiple day visit. Whether you are looking for park, trees, advanced runs, or groomed runs, Sun Peaks provides it all. One of my favourite resorts in Western Canada.

Absolutely brilliant tree lined skiing on Canada's second largest ski area. You can take a different line down the same runs through the trees and it's like a completely different run. Night life a bit quiet, but some quality food. Ski in/out to your door.

Great place to escape the British crowds during the half term weeks its a little pricey to get there but well worth the money the food is superb. The hospitality excellent and the pistes are the best groomed youll ever see.

Sun Peaks is kind of out there, but that's what makes it great, no lines! And it's big too, second biggest resort in Canada behind Whistler which help it feel like there's no one else there. The mountain biking in the summer is top notch as well. Go both seasons to really experience this place.

have been going for years and for a smaller scale resort its the perfect place , for an extremely advanced rider you could discover the whole of the three mountains in about 3 days but it never gets boring

Excellent terrain for beginner to advanced. Short lines. Good quality of snow. And great family friendly resort with lots of appropriate terrain for beginners and additional activities for non-skiers/snowboarders. Food and Beverage experiences lacking. Apres and night life experiences are available sometimes but lacking consistency.

Wonderful resort, although pricey.

The terrain is mainly groomed with a few places to go off-piste or moguls, some park. Tough snow conditions past couple of years but I mainly ski packed groom runs anyway.

Beautiful resort just outside of Kamloops, BC
Modern infrastructure. There is night skiing as well .
Less expensive than Whistler.
Fewer crowds but still offers excellent dining options
Accommodation is very reasonable in comparison to other resorts
