Whistler Winter Activities


Welcome to North America’s top Ski resort and host Mountain of the 2010 Winter Olympics. Ski the same mountains conquered by Olympians, or take in the other great hidden gems of Whistler winter activities.

Whether you are looking for that next adrenaline rush, to gain some serious vertical, become one with nature or relax, dine and unwind, we’ve got it all. You’ll never find a dull moment here – that is unless you want one, then of course you can put your feet up and relax. We don’t consider that dull either though!
 

Bungee Jumping


Take the leap! Whistler Bungee is BC’s highest and most pristine year-round bungee jumping site. Set between gorgeous old growth forest and rugged basalt column cliffs, you’ll experience the exhilaration of jumping from a 160ft (53 meter) bridge spanning 300ft over the glacier fed Cheakamus River. There is nothing like it.
