Tucked away in the mountains of British Columbia, this charming alpine village completely stole our hearts. From the moment we arrived, we felt worlds away from the usual, surrounded by breathtaking peaks, fresh mountain air, and a laid-back vibe that made us all instantly unwind. It was the kind of trip where we could genuinely slow down, soak up the views, and spend quality time together \u2014 no rushing, no crowded chaos, just pure joy.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Gemma and Chloe were in heaven here. Whether it was squealing with excitement on the Jeep tour, racing each other along the village paths, or trying ice cream <em>twice<\/em> in one day (because why not on vacation?), seeing Sun Peaks through their eyes made it even more magical. It\u2019s the kind of destination that effortlessly blends adventure and relaxation \u2014 we got to paddleboard on serene lakes, sip local wine with mountain backdrops, and end our days snuggled up in a cozy hotel room, planning what to explore next. Honestly, we couldn\u2019t have dreamed up a better mountain escape.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading has-white-color has-pale-pink-background-color has-text-color has-background\">CHECK OUT SOME OTHER CANADIAN DESTINATIONS<\/h4>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong><a href=\"https:\/\/thedaydreamdiaries.com\/travel-guide-to-bromont-quebec\/\">Travel Guide to Bromont, Quebec: A Region that feels like Europe!<\/a><\/strong><\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong><a href=\"https:\/\/thedaydreamdiaries.com\/family-vacations-in-ontario\/\">7 Family Vacations to do in Ontario<\/a><\/strong><\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong><a href=\"https:\/\/thedaydreamdiaries.com\/quebec-city-in-the-winter-1-day-itinerary\/\">Quebec City: Winter Itinerary<\/a><\/strong><\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong><a href=\"https:\/\/thedaydreamdiaries.com\/things-to-do-in-charlottetown-pei\/\">PEI Travel Guide: Everything to know about visiting this amazing island!<\/a><\/strong><\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong><a href=\"https:\/\/thedaydreamdiaries.com\/fall-colours-in-ontario\/\">14 Of The Best Fall Places in Ontario<\/a><\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading has-text-align-center\">How to get to Sun Peaks, British Columbia<\/h2>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter size-large\"><img fetchpriority=\"high\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"675\" height=\"1024\" src=\"https:\/\/thedaydreamdiaries.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/IMG_4470_jpg-675x1024.jpg\" alt=\"Sun Peaks Review\" class=\"wp-image-78531\" srcset=\"https:\/\/thedaydreamdiaries.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/IMG_4470_jpg-675x1024.jpg 675w, https:\/\/thedaydreamdiaries.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/IMG_4470_jpg-198x300.jpg 198w, https:\/\/thedaydreamdiaries.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/IMG_4470_jpg-49x75.jpg 49w, https:\/\/thedaydreamdiaries.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/IMG_4470_jpg-768x1165.jpg 768w, https:\/\/thedaydreamdiaries.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/IMG_4470_jpg-1013x1536.jpg 1013w, https:\/\/thedaydreamdiaries.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/IMG_4470_jpg-1351x2048.jpg 1351w, https:\/\/thedaydreamdiaries.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/IMG_4470_jpg-500x758.jpg 500w, https:\/\/thedaydreamdiaries.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/IMG_4470_jpg-800x1213.jpg 800w, https:\/\/thedaydreamdiaries.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/IMG_4470_jpg-1280x1941.jpg 1280w, https:\/\/thedaydreamdiaries.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/IMG_4470_jpg-1920x2911.jpg 1920w, https:\/\/thedaydreamdiaries.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/IMG_4470_jpg-1080x1638.jpg 1080w, https:\/\/thedaydreamdiaries.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/IMG_4470_jpg-150x227.jpg 150w, https:\/\/thedaydreamdiaries.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/IMG_4470_jpg-scaled.jpg 1688w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 675px) 100vw, 675px\" \/><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n<p>Sun Peaks is approximately 3 hours\u2019 drive from Kelowna, 4 hours from Vancouver or a quick 40 minute flight from Vancouver to Kamloops.

We took the chair lift up to mid mountain and did an amazing 45 minute road trip hike which was perfect for the littles.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>After hiking, we visited Sun Burst for a little drink and soaked up the views even more. We honestly felt like we were in the Sound of Music. On the way down from the chair lift, we watched the Bikers glide down the hills and it felt like a VIP ticket to the most entertaining show!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading has-text-align-center\">Mountain Biking<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"830\" height=\"1024\" src=\"https:\/\/thedaydreamdiaries.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/IMG_5864-830x1024.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-78516\" srcset=\"https:\/\/thedaydreamdiaries.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/IMG_5864-830x1024.jpg 830w, https:\/\/thedaydreamdiaries.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/IMG_5864-243x300.jpg 243w, https:\/\/thedaydreamdiaries.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/IMG_5864-61x75.jpg 61w, https:\/\/thedaydreamdiaries.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/IMG_5864-768x947.jpg 768w, https:\/\/thedaydreamdiaries.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/IMG_5864-1245x1536.jpg 1245w, https:\/\/thedaydreamdiaries.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/IMG_5864-500x617.jpg 500w, https:\/\/thedaydreamdiaries.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/IMG_5864-800x987.jpg 800w, https:\/\/thedaydreamdiaries.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/IMG_5864-1280x1579.jpg 1280w, https:\/\/thedaydreamdiaries.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/IMG_5864-1080x1332.jpg 1080w, https:\/\/thedaydreamdiaries.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/IMG_5864-150x185.jpg 150w, https:\/\/thedaydreamdiaries.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/IMG_5864.jpg 1290w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 830px) 100vw, 830px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>While we didn&#8217;t personally do Mountain Biking ( our youngest daughter is 3 so a bit too young for it), we were swooning over watching all the bikers head up the lift and rip down the trails.

Pack sweaters even when the weather is showing nicer temperatures <\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>With that being said the driving conditions are great in the summer but if planning a winter visit, make sure to continuously check the roads before you leave. You can find road conditions <strong><a href=\"http:\/\/www.drivebc.ca\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">here.<\/a><\/strong><\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Cellphone service from Kamloops to Sun Peaks to spotty so download an Offline Road Map.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>I would recommend staying anywhere from 3-5 nights. If you want to extend your trip, add a night in Kamloops<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>There is no gas station directly in town so make sure you fill up ahead of your visit! The closest one is about 20-25 minutes away<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>They have a grocery store and liquor store in the village with a ton of variety to our surprise however prices are a bit cheaper in town so keep that in mind!<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Check their Events page to be aware of upcoming events or plan your visit around one of them. So many amazing concerts and festivals. We personally visited during Canada day weekend and our kids did face painting, juggling school ( lol), got to do a scavenger hunt, got free tattoos and we hit up not 1 but 2 concerts! <\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>This guide is geared towards a summer visit but keep in mind that Sun Peaks is one of the best places to visit in the Winter for a ski visit. With over 4,000 acres of skiable terrain, cozy apr\u00e8s spots, and that same charming village vibe, it would be a perfect winter getaway too!<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>There&rsquo;s something so special about discovering a place that feels like it was made for family adventures &mdash; and that&rsquo;s exactly how Sun Peaks was for us. Tucked away in the mountains of British Columbia, this charming alpine village completely stole our hearts. From the moment we arrived, we felt worlds away from the usual, surrounded by breathtaking peaks, fresh mountain air, and a laid-back vibe that made us all instantly unwind. It was the kind of trip where we could genuinely slow down, soak up the views, and spend quality time together &mdash; no rushing, no crowded chaos, just pure joy. Gemma and Chloe were in heaven here. Whether it was squealing with excitement on the Jeep tour, racing each other along the village paths, or trying ice cream twice in one day (because why not on vacation?), seeing Sun Peaks through their eyes made it even more magical. It&rsquo;s the kind of destination that effortlessly blends adventure and relaxation &mdash; we got to paddleboard on serene lakes, sip local wine with mountain backdrops, and end our days snuggled up in a cozy hotel room, planning what to explore next.
