Nestled in the spectacular Coast Mountains of British Columbia just two hours from Vancouver, Whistler is Canada’s premier year-round destination and proud Host Mountain Resort for the 2010 Olympic and Paralympic Winter Games.

 The short drive to Whistler first follows the awe-inspiring Pacific coastline past rushing waterfalls, mountainous islands and emerald lakes, then ascends through old-growth valleys surrounded by rugged peaks. Enjoy the invigorating drive, or sit back and soak up the views from the comfort of a bus, limousine, float plane or train. Whistler Mountaineer offers a three-hour premier rail journey with incomparable views as the train hugs the oceanfront, winds through canyons and climbs the steep mountain grades to Whistler.

While it’s easy to get to Whistler, it’s always hard to leave. Distinguished by its impressive dual mountains, Whistler and Blackcomb, and surrounded by pristine valleys, rivers and lakes, the resort offers countless adventures and breathtaking views all around. Whistler’s coastal climate is mild, and summers are filled with warm, sunny days and breezy nights.

Even before it was recognized as the number one ski resort in North America, Whistler was already a long-established summer retreat – and for good reason. Hike to any peak, tee up on a championship green, raft some white water or ride endless singletrack. Or do it all, then top it off with a run in the world’s best mountain bike park. Here, every season calls you outdoors.

The mountains blend seamlessly with the pedestrian-only centre of Whistler Village, where you will find everything you need to refuel: shops, spas, restaurants, nightlife and a full range of accommodations.

Visitors find an undeniable spark in Whistler – an energy that lights up smiles, powers lasting memories and draws them back to the resort year after year. Come to Whistler and power your sense of adventure.
