Best Accommodation for BC Alpine Mega Camp: Why Ski Teams Choose Pinetree Chalet

What Is the BC Alpine Mega Camp?

The 2026 BC Alpine Mega Camp takes place from April 10-19 at Sun Peaks Resort in British Columbia.  It is a premier late-season training opportunity for alpine ski teams.

Held each spring as conditions allow, the camp brings together athletes, coaches, and clubs for up to 10 days of focused training. Designed to build on a full season of competition and development, Mega Camp gives athletes the opportunity to refine technique, improve consistency, and sharpen race execution ahead of the next season.

What makes the camp especially unique is the training environment. The mountain is closed to public skiing during the event, with exclusive lift access dedicated entirely to participating teams. With no lift lines, minimal interruptions, and structured training lanes across multiple runs, athletes are able to maximize every run in a focused, high-performance setting.

This combination of volume, efficiency, and elite coaching creates a training experience that is difficult to replicate during the regular season—making Mega Camp a valuable opportunity for teams looking to finish strong and prepare for what’s next.

Why Accommodation Matters at Mega Camp

Late-season training is demanding, and proper recovery is just as important as time on snow. Teams need an environment that allows them to:

• Recover effectively between sessions

• Stay organized and on schedule

• Meet as a group for analysis and preparation

• Maintain focus throughout an intensive training block

Pinetree Chalet is designed to support these needs, combining performance-focused amenities with practical convenience.

Convenient Access to Training

Pinetree Chalet is well located at the base of Tod Mountain for efficient transitions between on-snow training and recovery time. Minimizing travel helps athletes conserve energy, maintain routine, and stay focused throughout the day.

Ski-in access may still be possible, allowing athletes to finish their runs and return directly to the chalet—an added convenience after intense training sessions.

This combination helps athletes stay physically and mentally prepared throughout the camp.
