All Day

This Thanksgiving weekend at Sun Peaks is all about giving back, connecting with community, and creating memories!

As a part of the Thanksgiving Back event at Sun Peaks, you'll spend Saturday morning building and restoring trails, starting the day with coffee and a snack before heading out for a fun, hands-on session. After a light lunch, enjoy a guided group hike or bike ride, then wrap up the evening with a gift card to Morrisey’s Thanksgiving Dinner Special. Volunteers will be treated to a complimentary two nights' stay in Sun Peaks on Friday and Saturday evening.

Beyond trail building, the weekend is filled with other exciting events and activities, making it the perfect chance to recharge, celebrate, and experience the best of Sun Peaks. It’s a Thanksgiving to remember, with purpose, connection, and plenty of mountain fun.
