You have read the articles in the magazines, seen glimpses in the ski and snowboard movies, heard all about it from your friends. Now it is your turn to experience the magic of Whistler. Get ready for the vacation of a lifetime!

Whistler is a friendly ski town located in British Columbia, Canada and is home to almost 10,000 residents. One... of the many things that makes Whistler so special is two unbelievable mountains - Whistler and Blackcomb. Side by side, they represent over 8000 acres of skiable terrain, rising a mile above the valley of Whistler.

Our stats and rankings speak for themselves. Here's a brief overview:

Reviews & Tips (4)

Always...always ask for Rick Brown when ski lessons are involved at Whistler/Blackcomb. There is no better ski teacher or guide.

There is a tubing park - at Base 2 on Blackcomb, separate ticket required. New this season - free Wi-Fi available in the larger on-mountain restaurants and mountain owned slope side bars. If you want to take a (daily) lesson, tae a Max 4 lesson on Blackcomb - they're the best group of instructors.
