For anyone in Whistler, hanging out at one of the town’s beautiful lakes is a must! There are three main lakes around Whistler all within walking distance from the town center – Green Lake, Alta Lake, and my favorite, Lost Lake are accessible via easy walking trails through the surrounding pine forest. I personally visited them all and loved each o...
You may have taken a ride on a gondola before, but I can guarantee you haven’t ridden one as long as the Peak 2 Peak Gondolain Whistler. This HUGE gondola holds the world record for not only the longest gondola at 4.4 km (2.7 mi) but also the highest and longest unsupported span of any lift in the world. That’s three world records all in one! The P...
I know this one probably goes without saying, but I’ll say it anyway – hitting the slopes is absolutely one of the best things to do in Whistler! Blackcomb Moutainis Whistler’s winter pride and joy, with over 200 different runs, 3,307 hectares (8,171 acres) of terrain, and 36 different lifts, this is one place you want to check out. These statistic...
Bicycling is easily one of the best activities to do in Whistler. We rented bikes for a few hours and explored some of the lakes around Whistler – and it was awesome! What makes this activity so popular is the fact that the bike trails around Whistler can just about get you anywhere. It only takes a few hours to explore most of the closer trails to...
One of our favorite tours in Whistlerwas a buggy tour! In our small 4-wheel utility vehicle, we cruised the mountain tops in the Callaghan Valley taking in panoramic views (when we weren’t splashing in the puddles, that is). We didthis specific buggy tourand loved every minute of it. Although neither of us had ever driven a buggy before, plenty of ...
If you know me, then you would know that I love stunning alpine lakes (almost more than traveling itself!) Over the years I’ve been lucky enough to visit many blue lakes situated high up in the mountains. With that said, Joffre Lakesjust outside of Whistler is one of the best I’ve ever seen! Just picture it – stunning mountain peaks, a glacier, tur...
Who doesn’t love whitewater rafting? In summer, this activity is a no-brainer – especially on a hot day when you can enjoy the cool splash of the glacier water. Even if you have never gone whitewater rafting before this would be an opportune time to do so because the rapids on Green River are either a class II or class III so it won’t be too intens...
Whistler really is a winter paradise, and if you’ve heard anything about this town before, chances are you know just how amazing skiing and snowboarding is here! With that said, there are lots of other fun winter activities you can try here, including snowmobiling and snowshoeing. Snowmobiling in Whistler isn’t only exciting, but it is also very sc...
Whistler is home to some pretty unique things to do, and one that surprised me the most was the Train Graveyard. This unique attraction is a graveyard of train carriages that derailed back in the 1950s. In order to get the train tracks open as fast as possible after the derailment, they moved the carriages off the tracks and left them in the forest...
Ziplining is super fun but to be honest, after completing the Gibbon Ziplining Experience in Laos (2 days of 30 Ziplines some over 1 km (0.62 mi) long), I hadn’t come across another zipline worth doing that would top that. That is until I came across the Sasquatch® zipline in Whistler. The Sasquatch is the longest zipline in North America at over 1...
