Award-winning Whistler is one of the most unique mountain resorts in the world and operates year-round. The resort consists of two distinct mountains, and is the closest resort to Vancouver and Canada’s west coast.

Possessing a unique international flavour the charming Whistler village sits at the base of Whistler and Blackcomb mountains. With an interconnected community of lodgings, restaurants, pubs, gift shops, and boutiques Whistler Village is a pedestrian-only community and is so close to the base of the mountains that you can ski right into it. 

Whistler will be a host venue for the Vancouver 2010 Olympic and Paralympic Winter Games where athletes and spectators from around the world will converge for the alpine and nordic events including the slalom, bobsled, luge and skeleton.

With over 9m of annual snowfall and a vertical drop of 1,609m the rugged peaks of Whistler and Blackcomb offer exhilarating skiing and snowboarding on the largest ski-able terrain in North America (8,171 acres). With 34 lifts, 5 mountain bases and over 200 marked runs there is so much space for everyone.

Glide effortlessly around the spectacular cross-country trails, meander through wide open groomed runs, carve out your tracks in powder-filled bowls, steep powder chutes, challenging mogul fields and secluded tree glades. Snowboarders can fine tune their tricks on the championship-style pipe and terrain parks or fly into untouched powder and get the thrill of a lifetime.  With specially-developed kids programs, learning areas and secret kids-only castles and tree forts Whistler really does have something to offer everyone, including guests who choose not to ski.
