#5: The après-ski scene really shines in spring
Spring is the best time of year for après-ski celebrations, as spring temperatures seep through the village core and sun soaks lively patios—and secluded picnic spots, too! Just listen for the bells each afternoon—the Sun Peaks village has a daily 3:00pm "après bells" tradition to let you know it's time for a cold one ☀️🔔.
#6: that famous Spring Skiing sunshine
The month of March offers plenty of snow and sunshine in the mountains of interior British Columbia. April is famous for long days with soft, forgiving spring snow conditions later in the day when the rays warm the slopes, and the last week of the winter season is something you truly have to experience for yourself.
#7: Spring Snow Fest
Spring Snow Fest returns to Sun Peaks March 20–22 with three high-energy days perfectly timed for spring break. Expect bluebird laps, sun-soaked patios, a mountain-wide party vibe, plus freestyle park sessions and big air showdowns all weekend long. With a spring equinox kickoff, live DJs, and nonstop après paired with soft spring turns, it is the ultimate Sun Peaks spring celebration.
#8: make the most of your visit with Longer Lift & Daylight Hours
Morrisey and Sundance mountain lifts stay open until 4pm after February 1st. So it’s okay to sleep in and ski the afternoon away. Keep in mind powder days regularly happen right through spring and beyond closing day, so it never hurts to have your mountain go-bag packed the night before.
From family ski days to family-friendly activities savouring the final moments of winter in the mountains, warmer spring temperatures and longer days mean more hours of sunshine to spend outdoors with your crew.
