Leisure
The choice of activities is simply enormous. A glittering blanket of powder snow for carving perfect curves or sledding awaits you, in winter and summer alike. And the crystalline waters of the mountain lakes are ideal for kayaking, swimming or fishing for rainbow trout. From extreme sports (like bungee jumping or glacier climbing) to peaceful walks, everything is possible in Whistler… it’s enough to love the open air. In the evening, the ski resort comes alive to make way for parties. Get ready for a great time!
