Ski Whistler Promotion

Welcome to Canada’s premier ski resort.

Whistler is located in the snow-capped Coast Mountains of British Columbia and is a favourite ski holiday destination. Whistler offers an incomparable variety of terrain for all skill levels, breathtaking mountain scenery and the longest, most powder-filled season in North America.

Imagine two towering mountains sitting side by side, with more than 8,100 acres of skiable terrain accessed by a system of high-tech lifts and gondolas. No matter what you like to ride – steeps, chutes, alpine bowls, perfectly groomed corduroy or glorious runs through the trees – Whistler and Blackcomb Mountains offer more of everything you want from a ski holiday.

Frequently ranked as the number one ski resort in North America, Whistler is also Host Mountain Resort and site of many competitive events for the 2010 Olympic and Paralympic Winter Games.

In December 2008, Whistler will be record-breaking and award-winning, with the opening of a new PEAK 2 PEAK Gondola finally linking Whistler and Blackcomb Mountains. The PEAK 2 PEAK Gondola will allow visitors unprecedented access to more of both mountains’ expansive high alpine terrain and uniquely spectacular vistas, adding extra value to your lift ticket dollar.

Although you could spend all of your time in Whistler exploring the slopes and still never see them all, the resort has so much more to discover.

Whistler Village is situated where the two mountains meet. It provides an authentic alpine town experience and immediately embraces visitors with its genuinely warm, friendly atmosphere. The Village is a discerning shopper’s delight, with hundreds of boutiques and souvenir stores conveniently located to ensure endless browsing pleasure. Whistler is world-famous for its après scene with a wide selection of bars, pubs, lounges and family-friendly establishments where you can sample appetisers, make new friends and swap stories about your day on the slopes.

Believe it or not, skiing is only the tip of the "glacier" when it comes to action-packed outdoor fun and winter adventure in Whistler. From snowmobiling to dog sledding, cross-country skiing to snowshoeing, you’ll find every winter sport imaginable available in the resort – plus a few that you hadn’t imagined! Try flying along a zipline high over rushing whitewater on a snowy day, or whipping down a mountainside on an inflatable tube at Blackcomb Mountain’s Tube Park. Thrills and rosy-cheeked, laugh-out-loud fun are always close at hand.

Healthy fun in the outdoors is sure to inspire an even healthier appetite, and the resort features a variety of award-winning restaurants and eateries to satisfy every craving and every budget. From North American fare to the finest European cuisine, to fast food and fine dining – you’ll find it in Whistler Village. Whistler also offers a wide selection of accommodation options for your home-away-from-home, from famous hotel brands to luxurious chalets, suites, townhomes and condos.

For a ski holiday that’s beyond your expectations, visit Whistler.
