Whistler
Whistler resort, housing Whistler and Blackcomb Mountains is a skier's paradise, though it's more than
a ski resort and you'll be amazed at the size and variety of its attractions. It's a unique ski village with
a fantastic range of hotels from budget to luxury 5 star resorts, it has a beautiful pedestrian centre,
and you'll be as drawn to the shops, café's, bars and restaurants as you will the mountains!
There is so much skiing you could ski for 2 weeks and not repeat the same runs. Here are the stats — One vertical mile drop. Over 7,000 skiable acres. Two mountains. More than 200 trails. Three glaciers. 33 lifts. Twelve alpine bowls. The numbers speak for themselves! The resort has so much to offer in addition to mind blowing skiing and boarding, so why not try some of the following activities while there: Snowmobiling, Ziptrek Ecotours, Heli-Skiing/Boarding, Dog Sledding, Snowcat tours, Snowshoeing, Horse-drawn rides, Spa and Massage treatments, Cross Country skiing, Snowcat Skiing/Boarding, the list goes on!
Regarded as the Number 1 resort in North America, it's easy to see why people are drawn to it. Whistler is the host mountain resort for the 2010 Olympic and Paralympic Games, the excitement is building already!
There are also plenty of après ski options, with bars and nightclubs as well as excellent restaurants and café's throughout the hotels or village. You'll also find a vast selection of designer and big brand stores to pick up the season's latest looks for the slopes. You could quite easily be distracted from the slopes by the excellent shopping!

school for the kids and child care facilities, it makes for an ideal family holiday where everyone will have the chance for some fun.
