Home to one of the largest and best-known ski resorts in all of North America, Whistler is an inviting ski village that provides luxurious amenities and easy access to some of British Columbia's most impressive natural beauty. Skiing and snowboarding are the activities of choice during the winter, but when the warm weather rolls around, the mountains are transformed into a summertime playground full of opportunities to hike, mountain bike, and swim. However, the pedestrian-friendly village offers plenty of things to do as well, including full-service spas, world-class shopping, and fantastic restaurants and bars with welcoming patios.
