Rivers and the Peaks of the North Thompson Valley offer two great skiing and winter recreation destinations.

Harper Mountain, just a short 20-minute drive from Kamloops is an ideal mountain for family winter fun. Enjoy the popular lift-operated Tube Park or the Terrain Park for those looking for some rails and air. There is also night skiing/riding two nights of the week and a cozy log Day Lodge, with a large fireplace to warm up beside, panoramic views of the mountain and a licensed hot food cafeteria.

Sun Peaks Resort is a world class ski resort just 45 minutes from Kamloops. The Village provides all major amenities, dining, night life and more. But Sun Peaks is more than just skiing. There are snowmobile tours, snow shoeing tours, dog sledding and more! The winter fun never ends and the snow is some of the finest in the province.
