Real-Time Nordic Trail Grooming Updates

The Nordic grooming trail status below updates in real time. All snowcats are equipped with software that syncs directly with the website trail status and the digital on-mountain grooming boards, ensuring information remains accurate and current. Overnight grooming continues right up until Sun Peaks opens for the day, and may continue during operating hours when required.

A “Groomed with Fresh” status indicates the trail has received 5 cm or more of new snow since its last groom.

Operations Update – December 10

Early-season conditions remain in effect across all Nordic (cross-country) ski trails. We ask guests to make good choices and respect all trail closures for their safety and the safety of our Mountain Operations team. Please ski with caution.

Dogs on leash are now permitted on Cotton Tail and Village Trail. As a temporary measure until the full dog route is open, skiers with dogs may use both sections of Cotton Tail to complete a loop.

At this time, 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 prepare the network for the season ahead.

Grooming PDF

Our Daily Grooming PDF is generated once per day and published by 8:00am. While we aim to capture all groomed trails, some may be missed due to the document’s release timing. Therefore, the website and the digital on-mountain grooming boards provide the most accurate, up-to-date trail information.

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.
