The Ride To The top
Why drive to launch
when you can ride to the
top in style? Sun Peaks
Resort will operate the
Burfield chair lift exclusively
for the Canadian
Nationals. At launch you
will find a day shelter,
washrooms and there is a
snack bar within walking
distance.
Sun Peaks is a very picturesque
resort town which is well known in
the winter for skiing, but is also a
lively and scenic town in the
summer months. The self contained
village has all the basic amenities,
including accommodations, dining,
shopping, pubs, etc. Local
attractions in the summer include
an 18 hole golf course and driving
range, swimming pool, live music,
hiking, mountain biking, tennis,
horseback riding and more. The
nature of the Sun Peaks Resort venue
provides a great holiday experience
for pilots and non-pilots alike. For
additional amenities, the city of
Kamloops is only 45 minutes away..
