Whistler
Ski Vacation Great skiing. Great Nightlife.
Great People.
Whistler, located 110 km north of Vancouver in British
Columbia’s coast mountains, is the place
to go for a ski vacation. With over 8000 acres
of ski-able terrain, more than 200 trails and 33 lifts, there
is something for everyone at Whistler Blackcomb Resort.
All skiers will find what they are looking for here – whether
you have never put on skis before or you are an expert
searching for the next challenge. Beginners
can enjoy the learning ski areas, with Magic
Carpets to pull you up the slopes, and the Magic and
Village Chairs which run at an extra slow speed to
allow you to get on and off with ease. Intermediate
skiers can take advantage of the miles of
freshly groomed green and blue ski runs each day. Advanced
and expert skiers can ride the Glacier Express
on Blackcomb and Peak Chairs on Whistler to experience
ski chutes and bowls steep enough to make your knees
quiver.
On a sunny day, beginner, intermediate, and advanced
skiers can all ride the 7th Heaven Express on Blackcomb,
or the Harmony Chair on Whistler to catch the unbelievable
views. You’ll see majestic Black Tusk dominating
the sky, and snowy peaks and glaciers stretching as
far as the eye can see. On a spring day you may want
to pack a picnic so you can stay up and enjoy the view
and soak in some rays thoroughly enjoying your holiday.
If you’re looking for something a little different
on your vacation, check out the terrain parks. Both
mountains have parks and gardens to suit a range of
abilities, from gentle rollers to jumps so high you
might lose your lunch before you hit the ground.
After a hard day’s skiing, be sure to check
out the après scene in the village. The Longhorn
Saloon and the Glacier Lift Company (GLC) are both hot
spots in the Whistler Village. Check out Merlin’s
in the Upper Village near the Blackcomb base, or for
something different, ski down to Creekside and give
Dusty’s (locals’ hangout)
a try.
