Sunday River

Discover Eight Peaks

Sunday River spans three miles and is spread across eight interconnected peaks featuring 300 acres of tree skiing, six terrain parks, and the most dependable snow in New England. It is split up almost perfectly by difficulty, with beginner, intermediate, and advanced/expert terrain all representing about one-third of the mountain.

PERSISTENT POWDER

Sunday River’s eight distinctive, interconnected mountain peaks are known for having New England’s most dependable snow—keeping this Maine destination open from late October through early May. Be sure to hit up the western peaks on powder days, which are chock full of glades and hidden pockets of snow.

STICKY BUNS, SPICY BLOODYS

Stop in to the Peak Lodge mid-morning to refuel with one of Sunday River’s world-famous sticky cinnamon buns. Drenched with creamy glaze and bigger than your face, this sweet treat pairs perfectly with a monstrous spicy Bloody Mary, complete with smoky vodka and candied bacon.

BEAT THE WHITE HEAT

If you’re up for a challenge, take on one of Sunday River’s most iconic runs—White Heat. This steep double black diamond drops straight down the fall line and is packed with moguls, a long, sustained leg-burner for even the most experienced skiers and riders.

LOCAL HACK

Park at White Cap Base Lodge if you’re looking for minimal services but the quickest and easiest access to the slopes.
