Whistler Ski Area

The keynote of Whistler Blackcomb skiing is its variety, from steep powder chutes and challenging mogul fields to secluded tree skiing and miles of groomed pistes.
Whistler-Blackcomb has some of the greatest vertical rise and has more skiable acreage than anywhere else in North America. 8,171 acres (3,307 Ha) is the count after the recent addition of the Symphony express— a combined size double that of Aspen. The two massive mountains are divided by the Fitszimmons Creek and connected via the Village. The time consuming ski-out and lift system to switch mountains will soon be overcome by the Peak to Peak Gondola, which will connect the mountains at alpine level.

There truly is skiing here for every standard and every mood — bowls and trees, piste and powder. The variety of terrain means that you can ski in almost every condition. All powder with no visibility? Head for the trees. Sunshine and hard pack? Cruise down the steep and fast groomers. If you’re lucky enough to get the good snow and bluebird sky then shred the bowls and couloirs to your heart’s content.

There's more than 17 miles (27 kms) of cross-country trails throughout the village, including the Lost Lake area, the Chateau Whistler Golf Course, and Nicklaus North Golf Course. Rental equipment and trail maps for cross-country skiing are available at Lost Lake Hut. Contact the Whistler Information Center 604-932-2394 for further information.
