Over 8,100 acres of skiable terrain, 12 alpine bowls and more than 200 runs.

Nestled in the heart of the Coast Mountains of British Columbia, Whistler is located 120 km (75 miles) north of Vancouver.

Famous for its challenging terrain, animated village life and west coast friendliness, Canada's foremost four-season resort is considered one of the premiere mountain destinations in the world. And its reputation is well earned.

Two mountains, Whistler and Blackcomb, rise up a mile out of the valley (5,280 vertical feet) and access over 8,000 acres of prime mountain terrain including 12 alpine bowls, three glaciers and more than 200 marked trails through 33 state of the art lifts.

But that's not all. Whistler Village offers an enchanting pedestrian-only village, alive with festival entertainment, colorful shops and cozy bistros.

Whistler Blackcomb Mountains are operated by Intrawest Corporation, the leading developer and operator of mountain resorts across North America.
