Soar above the clouds in Whistler
As North America’s largest ski resort, Whistler is full of epic mountain scenery. On the 7-day From the Top: Western Canada by Design, you’ll have the option to take in Whistler’s sensational surroundings with a ride on the Peak-to-Peak Gondola. Span the distance between Whistler and Blackcomb and soak in the unparalleled, panoramic views of towering volcanic peaks, coastal rainforests, and ancient glaciers below.
For a different but equally as thrilling experience of Whistler, you can choose to walk high amongst the tree tops on the TreeTrek Canopy Walk. Get up close to Blackcomb’s spectacular old-growth cedar, hemlock, and fir trees as you navigate your way through a lofty labyrinth of suspended bridges, stairways and boardwalks.
