Highlights
General Information
The year-round charms of Whistler, BC, range past its two majestic mountains. With hundreds of shops and museums to explore and off-slope adventures to enjoy, winter presents the opportunity to shred through deep snow and powder, snowboard, cross country ski and dog sledd for all skill levels. Spring and summer allow visitors to try their hand at fly fishing, river rafting, horseback riding, golfing, tennis and hiking. Take advantage of the warm weather when exploring the beautiful scenery, and soak up the atmosphere at many of our fun and unique summer festivals.
