WELCOME TO WHISTLER BC VANCOU V ER 2010 OLY M PIC & PA R A LY M P I C G A M E S V E N U E Whistler is famous for its two spectacular winter playgrounds, Whistler and Blackcomb mountains. By the numbers, “the hills”—as they are affectionately known by locals—are incredibly appealing to any ski or snowboard enthusiast, as they boast a combined 8171 acres of terrain, 200+ marked runs, and 1164 centimetres (458 inches) of average annual snowfall.

But it’s the top marks the resort earns in the categories of terrain variety, off-hill activity, terrain parks, après and overall experience that have earned Whistler the #1 Resort award by Ski Magazine.

If variety is the spice of life, then Whistler’s impressive range of activities will ensure everyone has a taste of a winter adventure they enjoy. For those who revel in recreating under their own steam, there’s ice skating and hockey, classic and skate cross-country skiing (including a trail for dogs), tobogganing, snowshoeing and eagle viewing. Gravity fed snow-sports that will get your heart pumping encompass skiing, snowboarding, tubing, ziplining, snowmobiling, bungee jumping, heli-skiing, cat-skiing, bobsleigh riding and skeleton sliding. To experience a unique activity led by our furry four-legged friends, embark on an exciting dogsledding tour, or take a magical horse-drawn sleigh ride.

Whistler also has a wealth of cultural activities to explore, such as tasting and fondue tours, markets, and a museum. Learn about the art, history and culture of the indigenous peoples of our region at the Squamish Lil’wat Cultural Centre.

To experience the breathtaking views of Whistler and Blackcomb, their snow-capped peaks and forested terrain, take a ride on the Guinness World recordholding PEAK 2 PEAK Gondola, built for sightseers, skiers and snowboarders alike. Tickets are available at Whistler Blackcomb Ticket Windows and Guest Relations locations. 1.800.766.0449
