WHISTLER, CANADA
NORTH AMERICA'S #1 RESORT
Whistler Blackcomb is generally regarded as the best ski resort in the world, and has countless awards for its terrain, snow parks, après ski, activities and restaurants to prove it.
Slopes
The Whistler skiing and snowboarding terrain varies incredibly from gentle slopes and wide groomed cruisers to tree skiing, steep alpine bowls, couloirs and terrain parks. No other resort offers so much variety.
Not only is it the best, but its the biggest too! The two huge mountains of Whistler and Blackcomb are connected by the Peak 2 Peak Gondola creating this mammoth resort. 8,000 acres, over 200 runs, 5 snow parks, a super pipe and alpine bowls are just some of the reasons Whistler is the envy of all other ski resorts.
Both mountains are vast and can accommodate skiers of all levels. The more gentle runs will keep the beginner from venturing out of their comfort zone, while the abundance of intermediate runs will ensure that learning progression is smooth and controlled, with an endless variety of trails, from freshly groomed corduroy to scenic tree-lined adventures to keep you busy! For the advanced skier, then the awesome alpine bowls, mogul fields, off-piste powder and snow parks will feed all of your needs. Nobody leaves Whistler disappointed. Fact!
MOUNTAIN STATS
Two side-by-side mountains are connected by the Guinness World Record-holding PEAK 2 PEAK Gondola and supported by one of the largest networks of high-speed chairlifts in the world. With one of the longest ski seasons on the continent, Whistler has lots going for it.

Activities
Whistler Village is a lively mix of off-hill action and local amenities, folded into a pedestrian-only vibrant hub conveniently located directly at the base of the slopes of Whistler and Blackcomb Mountains. Streets lined with shops, restaurants and world class après venues all help you relax and enjoy your time in Canada.
Whistler is more like a city than a ski village, it’s sheer size and the diverse crowds it attracts means there is always something new to try when you’re not on the hill. Our resort team can help you make the most of your time in Whistler and group adventures are offered every week to ensure you are never bored!
Nightlife
When the sun sets in Whistler the adventure and fun doesn’t end, in fact it’s just the beginning of après time! After dark in resort is crazy. The international crowd are all there for the same reason, to let their hair down and PAR-TAY!
Select your watering hole, choose your poison and set the pace – ales and tales in an Irish pub, cocktails in a classy lounge or make shapes in a nightclub to an international DJ. Whistler has it all.
