Sun Peaks Resort Hiking

Sun Peaks Trails

Sun Peaks' hiking trails are rated and clearly marked easy, moderate, and advanced. One of the most traveled trails is the Crystal Bowl Look trails, an easy-to-moderate hike through the low alpine area. It intersects with the Top of the World Trail.

One of the most challenging hiking routes is the Great Elevations Trail leading to the top of Tod Mountain. The summit offers a breathtaking view of the alpine and valley, and visitors can commemorate their journey by adding a rock to the cairn at the peak. A more moderate hike (just one steep section), with almost the same spectacular views, is the Top of the World Trail. In late July and early August, alpine wildflowers are in full bloom.
