Whistler, B.C.

Whistler is an unparalleled year-round destination resort. With the greatest vertical drop on the continent and more than 7,000 acres of skiable terrain, it in no wonder that Whistler has been recognized as the Top Ski Resort in North America for the past decade. Less than a two-hour drive north of Vancouver, this vast playground is host to over two million visitors annually.

An award wining international resort, Whistler village is known for its unique pedestrian village featuring distinctive dining, spas, shopping and nightlife. Superb skiing, a world-beating downhill mountain bike park and four championship golf courses make it one of the best four-season destination resorts in North America. Whistler HeliSledder’s operations run right until August, so visitors can sled on the glacier one day and enjoy summertime activities the next.

Whistler will co-host (with Vancouver) the 2010 Winter Olympic & Paralympic Games.
