General

The world-famous skiing resort in Whistler offers the perfect run for any kind of winter activities, no matter your level: from beginner to expert skiing, snowboarding, snowmobiling, heli-skiing, a tube park, horse-drawn sleigh rides, zip trek eco-tours, dog sledding, snow cat tours, snow-limp mountain eco-touring, Pontiac races, back country wildlife tours or snowshoeing are just some of the fun recreational activities Whistler has to offer.

But Whistler resort became world-famous because of the over 200 ski runs that attract thousands of ski-lovers every year. Whistler has not only the longest ski season in Canada but also the largest ski area and the greatest vertical rise of any mountains in North America, spreading on over 8,100 acres.

Visited by many Hollywood stars, it is an expensive resort.

In 2010 Whistler will be home of Olympic and Paralympic Winter Games.
