Located in the beautiful Canadian Rocky Mountains and home to the 2010 Winter Olympics, Whistler ski resort is a great place to bring your family for the ultimate and luxurious ski vacation. With ski lifts and runs of all types and styles, skiers of any age and ability level can enjoy a Whistler vacation. Not only does Whistler offer skiing, but also a bike park that is lift accessible and a new adventure called the Peak 2 Peak experience that can be enjoyed during the warmer Summer months. Whistler ski packages and hotels in Whistler can be found to fit any budget.
The Whistler/Blackcomb resort area is the largest and most well known ski area in all of North America. You can enjoy both snowboarding and ski runs in a high alpine environment that are like no other. You can also enjoy the nightlife and dining opportunities in nearby Whistler Village.

Whistler lift tickets can be found in many different styles. You can buy gift cards for friends and family who enjoy skiing or mountain biking. If you live nearby or may visit the Whistler resort more than once in a year, a season pass may be a good idea as it is more budget friendly as after two trips it pays for itself. Another way to get your Whistler lift tickets is to get them online where special deals can often be found. If you live in British Columbia or nearby Washington State, consider the Edge Card as another option as it can be preloaded with as many days as you like and will continue giving discounts on Whistler lift tickets after those days are used up.

Many Whistler ski packages can be purchased either online through whistler-hotels.com at discounted prices. Hotels in Whistler range from budget friendly to luxurious and may include a spa to help you unwind after a day on the mountain. Some may also include fine dining establishments or may be near a local favorite.

Whether you are a Summer traveler or a Winter ski enthusiast, Whistler has something to offer you.
