Whistler Village Information & Guide

It is a full-fledged, world-class mountain vacation destination that offers shopping, dining, mountain recreation, and exquisite alpine accommodations on a year-round basis. This is all in addition to the 3100 plus acres of ski-able alpine terrain that Whistler/Blackcomb has to offer. For many Whistler visitors skiing may be the focal point, but the Whistler Village adds a great deal of recreational value to the experience. For others, the Whistler Village itself is what calls them here in the first place.
