About Whistler
Whistler and Blackcomb mountains form one of North America's largest ski resorts, offering over 8,100 acres of skiable terrain connected by a record-breaking gondola. When the snow melts, the same slopes transform into a world-class mountain-biking park, and the valley fills with hikers, golfers, and bear-watching tours. The pedestrian village at the base hums year-round with restaurants, galleries, and après-ski patios that keep visitors fueled between adventures.
Things to Do
Whistler-Blackcomb Skiing
Carve through over 200 marked runs and wide-open alpine bowls spread across two interconnected mountains with reliable snowfall.
Peak 2 Peak Gondola
Ride the free-span record-holder between Whistler and Blackcomb peaks for jaw-dropping views of glaciers, old-growth forest, and volcanic peaks.
Mountain Bike Park
In summer, take the gondola up and ride lift-accessed downhill trails ranging from flowing green runs to expert-only rock gardens.
Bear-Viewing Tour
Join a guided 4x4 excursion into the backcountry to spot black bears foraging in meadows and along salmon-filled creeks.
Après in the Village
Warm up with craft beer and fondue on a heated patio in the pedestrian village after a full day on the slopes.
Local Tips
Buy lift tickets online at least 48 hours ahead for significant savings over the window price.
Layer up in winter: summit temperatures can be 15°C colder than the village and weather changes fast.
The free village shuttles and local bus system make a rental car unnecessary once you arrive.
Visit mid-January through February for the deepest snowpack and shorter lift lines compared to holiday weeks.
