Sun Peaks Ski Lifts

The days are long gone when they gave you a blanket for the epic lift journey on the Burfield chair. The Sun Peaks lift system is modern and efficient. Now with 11 lifts including 5 quads, Sun Peaks infrastructure can carry 12,000 people per hour up the three mountain peaks.

That’s almost double the overnight bed base resulting in having the pistes virtually to yourself and most of the time skiing right onto the lift with no line at all. The Burfield chairlift still takes 22 minutes to the Top of the World, as long as an episode of Neighbours, though skiers can now load at a mid-station to loop the black runs from the top of Tod.

Skiers on Sundance can gain access to the skiing on Tod without returning to the village thanks to the construction of the new quad chairlift “Elevation” halfway down the 5-Mile run. Built through a long standing partnership with the Austria National Ski Team who shared costs and train early season in Sun Peaks on the Nancy Greene’s International Race Centre.

The piste map gives helpful pointers such as “Easiest Route Down” and “Slow Ski Zone”. Sun Peaks Ski Lift Passes The Village Day Lodge on the edge of the resort is the main meeting point for skiers and snowboarders and the place to buy lift passes, organise ski lessons and sort out ski and snowboard hire.
