3. Sun Peaks Ski Resort
Sun Peaks is Canada’s second largest ski area, after Whistler but is still
largely unknown outside of Canada and even one of the lesser-known re-
sorts within Canada. Given the amount of terrain, spread over three moun-
tains, it’s not surprising this resort offers a little something for everyone,
with steeps, cruisers, and tree skiing. And, although you can find all kinds of
runs, Sun Peaks is particularly focused on beginner and intermediate skiing,
making it a great choice for families.
The European-style village at the base offers ski-in, ski-out accommodation
and facilities, adding a level of convenience for people who choose to stay
here. You can find everything you need right at the resort, including quality
hotels or condos and good restaurants, or you can commute from nearby
Kamloops, 45 minutes away.
