Whether you are seeking outdoor adventure, from one of the world's top-ranked skiing locations to bungee jumping over the old-growth forests surrounding Cheakamus river, a Whistler vacation in the winter has enough excitement and challenge to satisfy anyone. The ski school and trained guides also make it easy to plan fun events for the whole family in the majestic landscape surrounding Whistler and Blackcomb mountain. When it's time to relax, recuperate, or just let off a little steam, the pedestrian village is in short walking distance from your Whistler hotel accommodation.

Enjoy the Winter Wonderland of a Whistler Vacation!
The village is a great place to learn about all the nearby attractions and outdoor adventures, but it also has plenty to offer visitors. A plethora of dining options awaits, with venues including pastry shops for morning coffee and scones, delis for dining in or brown-bag lunches, and fine restaurants. Some of the restaurants make it a point to serve food grown on local farms and special effort is made to cater to restrictive diets. When weather permits, outside dining offers a romantic backdrop to the meal, with views of the mountains and forests. Dining fireside can be a treat too. Whistler Village is a pedestrian zone, and you'll find walking to the small shops is both unhurried and safe. Book one in the village for a comfortable horse-drawn glide over the snow around Green Lake or several other popular trails.
