Tod Mountain: Where it all began; the original and classic Sun Peaks mountain. Check out Tod’s open bowls and challenging terrain, as well as the 8 km top-to-bottom family-friendly green run.

Sundance Mountain
The first mountain to open and the last to close each day, Sundance is home to award-winning groomed runs, race events, terrain park, ski school learning area and Tube Park.

Mt Morrisey
Sun Peaks’ third and newest mountain offers an easy layout of open glades, cruising style runs and black diamond steeps, with more steeps to come in the future. Morrisey’s northerly exposure also keeps the snow light and dry and ensures that it lingers well into the spring each year.

All this adds up to an incredible variety of skiing and riding terrain for every level. From powder-filled bowls to perfectly groomed cruisers and exhilarating tree skiing, Sun Peaks has something for everyone.
