Our ski week in Sun Peaks has been set for Sunday, March 6th to Thursday, March 10th, 2016. By visiting Sun Peaks earlier than in previous years we expect to find perfect snow conditions and to avoid the notorious school break.

Cahilty Lodge offers special rates for rooms and 4 days ski passes.

They have set up the group code as SWISS so people can call and book using that group code.

Typical room rates are:

– $ 128.00 per night plus tax for a Studio room with a queen murphy bed and double sofa bed

– $ 152.00 per night plus tax for Studio Kitchenettes with a queen bed or a queen murphy bed.

Other room options are also available.
