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.

Great resort. Three mountains, every green run groomed overnight, 70% of blue runs groomed overnight, 10% black runs groomed overnight. All accomodation is ski in/out. No crowds, no lift queues mid week; small crowds, small lift lines on weekends. Mountain staff are very friendly. Snow quality great as it does get cold. When it snows, it seems to dump. Village a bit small with limited bars and restaurants. Lift infrastructure could do with some upgrades as there are many older slower chairs. All in all a great resort if you are after a ski mountain, but dont expect lively bars or night life.

Fun mountain, good blue cruising runs. Mountain top can be fogged out but other lower zones have good cruising. More of a family area, not much to challenge a skier looking for deep snow or cliff jumping videos

One of the best resorts for families, lots of easier terrain, but with a bit of exploring you can find some more demanding off pist terrain with a short hike to gils favorite spots;)

I loved staying at sun peaks! Had a great time there with my entire extended family, all of my little cousins had a blast was super family friendly and the green runs were perfect. Loved the terrain park with the massive hill jumps, I would reccomend going to get a candy apple at Rocky Mountain chocolate! I suffered from an injury the first time we went and the first aid staff was helpful and attentive.

Great groomed skiing. Not super busy. Would be great for familys. Most of the mountain feeds down to one place. The restaurants are pretty good. The sushi restaurant in the village is fantastic. Fairly quiet Apres but the skiing makes up for it.

Sun Peaks is the hot BC destination for powder and groomed runs-- winning best groomers multiple times. The village is charming and cozy, there are always great activities on for kids and families, and the extras, snowshoeing and x-country, are world class. We love skiing SP, especially love the varied terrain and the snow quality. The lifties and snow school instructors are awesome, and the whole ski resort seems like its run by happy folks who love to share snow sports with visitors. SP is my favorite ski destination in BC

I love the mountain and am a local. The hill is extremely expensive for the average person though. Unfortunate for locals wanting to shred on the beautiful terrain.

We spent Christmas at this resort and it was incredible. The hotel is located on the actual ski mountain making for a true ski in ski out experience. No night skiing. Very few restaurants and they are pricey. Love how relaxed this resort is. The sun truly shines bright here.

Family weekend two years in a row, with two other families. Stayed in a. chalet that accomodated all of us. Walk to hill, so no need to drive but not ski in/ski out. Not a lot of restaurants, or apres bars, but enough for a few days. Cute village. Great skiing!!!!!

Sun peaks has an amazing lay out for any level of rider.
The layout of the shop is great for getting lots of runs in.
For anyone who wants to reach the top of the world in sun peaks your best bet is to use the chairs from the village.

This is by far my favourite resort in Canada. Sun peaks has awesome snow, and the cutest village at the level of many chairlifts making the whole village ski in-ski out. It has a lot of family friendly lifts and a great terrain park

A really well rounded resort. Great for families and riders of all skill level as theres something for everyone. We were there over Christmas and it wasnt crazy busy even though its a popular resort. Theres lots of food options to choose from, but dont expect any fine dining. It doesnt have the app seen of resorts in Europe or even that of Whistler, but thats not particularly important to us. A lot of ski and ski out accommodations to choose from. In my experience, even when the snow is scant its still pretty good.

I used to work here. The resort is beautiful, I would go back in a heartbeat.
it looks like a winter wonderland. They have a helpful grooming board, so you know which runs have been groomed. They get good snow, and all of the staff are nice. There are so many lovely places to get food and drink in the village. A little pricey but worth it.

Sunpeaks is one of my favourite hills to ski and snowboard, with three different mountains facing different directions, you'll find something for everyone at any time of day and weather. Plenty of ski-in and ski-out accomodation. Easy to access food and lodges, and the lifts are quick, high capacity and comfortable. Dreaming of the next time I can go back.
