If you're a skier or boarder you’ve heard it all before. Whistler is consistently ranked at the top of winter resort destinations and it will play host to the 2010 Olympic and Paralympic Winter Games. Whistler is now enjoying a strong reputation as a premier golf resort and the Village is just as bustling in summer as when the snow is falling.
In winter, the mountains of Whistler and Blackcomb offer more than 200 runs with an extended season from November to June. And throughout the summer, this spectacular retreat is popular with its surrounding lakes, alpine hiking, mountain biking trails and local festivals. The four outstanding golf courses, created by world-famous designers, will have you sinking putts in the most breathtaking surroundings.
The shopping, restaurant and club scene in the Village is hopping year-round. Whether you are interested in participating in active outdoor pursuits, or prefer the luxury of a pampering spa, we will share all our favourite places. We will guide you to the best cafés for cappuccino, the most delicious Italian meals, hidden walking or snowshoe trails, quiet lakeside spots and the best local bars.
The Sea to Sky highway takes you from the centre of Vancouver to the base of the mountain in under two hours. Along the way there are waterfalls and spectacular vistas to see. We have been enjoying Whistler long before it made the world stage and we can’t wait to share our intimate knowledge of this special resort community.
