Sun Peaks - Weather forecast

The Sun Peaks resort is located in the British Columbia Interior only 58km (a 45-minute drive) northeast of the town of Kamloops. Sun Peaks is 409km northeast of Vancouver British Columbia, a 4.5-hour drive.

The ski/ snowboarding season at Sun Peaks typically runs from November to April. The resort’s official website provides accurate opening and closing dates.

The snow is real in Sun Peaks Resort and benefits from natural snowfall, the resort also utilizes snowmaking technology to ensure consistent conditions. The majority of the resort snowmaking system is gravity fed from on-mountain storage. This means that water is not pumped up the hill in order to make snow, which is a major energy savings. The only exception to this is our International Race Training Centre which requires supplemental snowmaking efforts.

Sun Peaks is approximately a 45-minute drive from Kamloops, which has an airport with flight connections to major Canadian cities. It’s also accessible by car or shuttle services.
