5. Sun Peaks – Best Canada Ski Resort With Awesome Beginner Terrain
The trails at Sun Peaks ski resort are well laid out and pretty easy to navigate with almost all runs leading back to the base village. It makes for easy navigating and it is almost impossible to get lost. Especially in comparison to Switzerland and Austria where skiers and boarders can easily end up in another village or country if they don’t pay attention.
The resort doesn’t serve as a mecca for ski bums, but that doesn’t mean the ski runs aren’t notable. There are a number of challenging pistes, bowls, glades, and a nice terrain park that has plenty to offer expert and advanced ability levels. It’s a nice full-service ski resort and the second largest in Canada only smaller than the monstrous Whistler-Blackcomb.
