Whistler Blackcomb is a major ski resort located 125 km north of Vancouver, in British Columbia, Canada. By many measures it is the largest ski resort in North America; it is 50% larger than its nearest competitor in terms of size, has the greatest uphill lift capacity, and until 2009, had the highest vertical skiable distance by a wide margin. Whistler Blackcomb also features the Peak 2 Peak Gondola for moving between Whistler and Blackcomb mountains at the top. With all of this capacity, Whistler Blackcomb is also often the most-visited ski resort, often besting 2 million visitors a year.

There is much more to enjoy than just the scenery! Once your Whistler Star Express van arrives with “Star Service”, let the Whistler locals show you the shopping, skiing, fishing, golfing, hiking, snowshoeing, swimming, and more. Or enjoy one of the many Whistler festivals and festivities!
