Real-Time Nordic Trail Updates
The grooming status information below updates in real time as our team works on the Nordic trails overnight. A “Groomed with Fresh” status means the trail has received 5cm or more of new snow since it was last groomed. Sun Peaks Resort also updates trail status throughout daily operating hours.
Operations Update - December 4
Early-season conditions are present on our Nordic (cross-country) ski trails. We ask guests to make good choices and respect all trail closures for your safety and the safety of our Mountain Operations team.
Please ski with caution. At this time, dogs and fat bikes are not permitted on the Nordic trails due to early-season conditions. Snowshoe trails also remain closed until further notice.
Thank you for your cooperation as we work to prepare the network for the season ahead.
Grooming PDF
Our Daily Grooming PDF is generated manually once per day, around 7:00am. While we aim to capture all groomed trails, some may be missed due to the timing of the document's release. Please refer to the Nordic trail list below and on-mountain grooming board for real-time, up-to-date status.

The lift-accessed Holy Cow trail features several significant downhill sections and is best suited to confident intermediate or advanced Nordic skiers. Guests should be comfortable on intermediate trails throughout the rest of the Sun Peaks network before attempting Holy Cow.
Backcountry trails are neither groomed nor patrolled, and are not recommended for those new to the trail system or new to Nordic skiing. They are operated in conjunction with the Province of BC and the Kamloops Outdoor Club.
