Overview
Sun Peaks, British Columbia, is an award-winning, year-round resort and Canada's second-largest ski area. Located in the picturesque Interior of British Columbia, this destination offers a vibrant, pedestrian-only village nestled at the base of three mountains. While it is renowned for its light, dry powder snow in the winter, it transforms into a stunning alpine playground during the summer months, with over 84 km of bike trails, 17 hiking trails, and British Columbia's highest elevation golf course.
A visit to Sun Peaks is an immersion in a laid-back, welcoming mountain lifestyle, where you can easily transition from outdoor adventures to cozy relaxation. The resort's European-style village is a hub of activity, with restaurants, cafes, and shops all within a short, scenic stroll, making it a perfect inland getaway for a day or a longer stay.
Whether in summer or winter, a scenic chairlift ride is a must. In summer, the lift takes you to the top of the mountain for breathtaking views and access to alpine hiking trails and wildflower meadows. In winter, it's your gateway to incredible ski and snowboard terrain.
Tip: Even if you're not a hiker, the views from the top are spectacular. Grab your camera for stunning panoramic shots of the surrounding mountain ranges.
In the warmer months, choose from an array of hiking trails that wind through alpine meadows blooming with wildflowers. For the adventurous, Sun Peaks' reputation as a premier mountain biking destination is well-deserved, with trails for all skill levels from beginner to advanced.
Tip: The resort offers rentals for both bikes and hiking gear. Check trail maps and conditions at the village base before you start.
Tee off at British Columbia's highest 18-hole golf course. The elevated greens and fairways provide a unique challenge and stunning views. The mountain air and scenery make for a truly memorable round, regardless of your handicap.
Tip: Book your tee time in advance, especially during peak summer weekends, and be prepared for cooler temperatures at the higher elevations.
Spend time exploring the charming pedestrian village. Its "ski-through" design in winter and easy walkability in summer make it a hub of activity. Browse local shops, enjoy a coffee at a cafe, or find a unique souvenir to remember your trip.
Tip: The village often hosts live music, events, and a farmers' market in the summer. Check the local events calendar to see what's happening during your visit.
After a day of adventure, unwind with a dip in the outdoor heated pool. Many of the hotels and lodges in the village have this amenity, offering a relaxing soak with incredible views of the mountains, a perfect way to end your day.
Tip: Remember to bring your swimsuit. This is a particularly nice way to warm up after skiing or to cool down after a long hike.
Sun Peaks has a variety of restaurants and pubs to suit every taste. From casual pubs to fine dining, you can enjoy local specialties and international cuisine. In the winter, the village has a lively après-ski culture.
Tip: Try some of the local British Columbia wines or craft beers available at many of the restaurants for a true taste of the region.
