Skiing and Snowboarding in Kamloops, British Columbia
Where to Ski and Snowboard in Kamloops
Kamloops is ideally situated for that next skiing or snowboarding experience as the city enjoys mild winters and relatively little snowfall within city limits, but the surrounding mountains are typically laden with tons of the white stuff.
Only a short 45 minute drive from the city centre lands you at world renowned Sun Peaks Resort. Or, drive only 20 minutes to get to popular Harper Mountain. Either destination is a great opportunity to enjoy the awesome snowy conditions the mountains around Kamloops are well known for.
Harper Mountain - Family Winter Fun
Harper Mountain will provide a full day of fun for each member of the family. Check out the Tube Park, where everyone will laugh their way down the mountain on giant tubes. Head out skiing or boarding on 1,400 vertical feet of varied landscape and try out Terrain Park for those looking to catch some air. Night skiing and boarding are available every Thursday and Friday night during ski season.
Sun Peaks Resort - World Renowned Excitement
Join the locals, and people from all over the world, at Sun Peaks Resort. Skiers and snowboarders alike will enjoy the pristine alpine glades and groomed cruisers on this 3,678 acre playground which is the 2nd largest ski area in B.C. and the 3rd largest in Canada. Experience for yourself Winch Cat grooming, which is performed on the black diamond runs. The process, which involves using a Winch Cat to push snow back up a run, creates a perfect corduroy carpet and an even snow pack from top to bottom!
