Explore

Whistler and Blackcomb reign as king and queen among Canada's mountain peaks. A scenic two-hour drive from Vancouver along the Sea To Sky highway brings you into the heart of this alpine valley. Renowned as the top-ranked ski area in North America, Whistler easily rivals the major ski regions of Europe. And when the snow melts, this all-season resort transforms into a playground for mountain biking and golf enthusiasts. Evenings offer a selection of intimate candlelit dinners, cozy fireside lounges and lively nightclubs.
