Sun Peaks holidays

There’s nothing like a sunny summer escape to the Sun Peaks. Aside from relaxing away the days, plenty of action-packed activities can be enjoyed. Explore the natural surroundings, try out paddle-boarding, enjoy a canoe tour, have fun biking, ride the chairlift or play a round of golf! The list is never-ending. This is a haven for outdoor adventurers. How about singing along to some outdoor live music? Endless activities and entertainment pair with plenty of sunshine for an unforgettable summer break.

If there’s a time of year that Sun Peaks holidays cater for so well, it’s ‘Patio Season’. So, if you prefer to relax and unwind on your holidays, visit one of the eateries serving delicious food and refreshing beverages. For a small town, there’s certainly plenty of choice - not to mention the incredibly popular ‘Chocolate Factory’ that the kids are bound to love! Whether you fancy an adrenaline-pumping adventure or a relaxing escape full of tasty treats, Sun Peaks is the perfect place for you.

If you visit this incredible destination from November to March, this is a winter wonderland of adventure. You can expect 4,270 acres of snow spread over the three magnificent mountain peaks! And there are 135+ ski trails in total. But if you don’t fancy skiing or snowboarding, not to worry, as there are plenty of other activities to get involved in. Think snowboarding, axe throwing, ice skating, dog sledding, yoga, snow-mobiling, ice-fishing and more! Not to mention the many exciting events to get involved in during winter too.

You’re bound to be feeling peckish after all those action-packed activities. And luckily, there are plenty of eateries to choose from in the pretty village located below the mountains. Have you ever seen a magical little village covered in snow on a Christmas card? That is exactly what you can expect to find here. Tuck into everything from juicy sushi to delicious homemade fudge.

Prefer something a little more relaxed? Sometimes cold days are best enjoyed from inside somewhere warm! Work out at the gym, enjoy a rejuvenating massage, or tuck into some sumptuous alpine fondue. There’s nothing quite like indulgent self-care and pampering, especially after an active day in the mountains.

This village is located in the interior of British Columbia and just under an hour away from Kamloops. There are many ways to get to the Sun Peaks. You can fly from Vancouver airport to Kamloops, then drive to Sun Peaks. Alternatively you could hop on a bus from Vancouver, Kelowna, Calgary and Edmonton. Or enjoy a train ride from Vancouver to Kamloops!

However, the best and safest way to reach the Sun Peak resort is to fly from Vancouver to Kamloops then take a scheduled transfer to Sun Peaks - especially during the winter, when it’s likely to be snowy. 

Fancy a scenic summer road trip between Vancouver and Calgary? We wouldn’t blame you. You can expect an array of beautiful scenery during this incredible journey. And it’s good to know that the beautiful Sun Peaks resort is just a 5-hour drive from Vancouver. Midway between Vancouver and the Rockies, Sun Peaks makes a great stop off point or a base for exploring the region. Take part in one of the many activities, feast on the treats served in Sun Peaks village or enjoy a relaxing massage in the spa! Even just two or three nights in this dream-like retreat are sure to be unforgettable.
