Rated again and again as North America’s best ski resort, Whistler truly has it all. Over 200 trails spread between two peaks (Whistler and Blackcomb Mountains) and linked by the famous Peak2Peak gondola, the resort has become the pride and joy of Canada’s Pacific North West. Whistler Blackcomb offers more choice than nearly any other mountain destination in the world, with a combination of adrenaline pumping descents and incredible scenery.

Skiing and snowboarding in Whistler

The skiing and snowboarding are world class, and will suit all needs. There are plenty of easy blue and green slopes for those finding their feet, and even more options for those at a more intermediate level including the bowls and the extremely Canadian off-piste tours for those who fancy something a little more daring.

With over 8,171 acres of skiable terrain, it's impossible to get bored. During your stay, you'll have the chance to explore 16 alpine bowls, 3 glaciers and some world-class terrain parks. Whistler is also home to one of the longest and reliable winter seasons, so you're in for some great snow!

Awarded the best family ski resort award in 2023, Whistler is a great resort for families. There are lots of opportunities for little ones on the mountains, and Whistlers specially designed family zones include the amazing Whistler Kids Snow School, enchanted Tree Fort and Magic Castle - guaranteed to put smiles on everyone’s faces.

Where to stay in Whistler

We have a mix of hotels and apartments on offer across Whistler all of which are located along pedestrian-friendly streets - You'll find that the resort itself is as beautiful as it is practical.

Bars and restaurants in Whistler

If you’re more suited for the après-ski, you can kick back in the mountain bars. Whistler offers a superb array of nightlife including top of the range restaurants and numerous bars with down to earth, welcoming après from the moment the lifts close until dinner time. Into the night, Whistler is host to a fantastic variety of clubs and bars for those who fancy a spot of dancing.
