Whistler Blackcomb is the largest ski resort in North America and a dream destination for ski enthusiasts around the world. The resort has more than 8,000 acres of skiable area and more than 100 ski trails, suitable for people of all skiing levels. From beginners to advanced skiers, everyone can find a challenge that suits them. The unique Peak 2 Peak cable car connects the two peaks, providing a magnificent mountain view experience. The resort is well-equipped with not only world-class skiing services, but also high-end hotels, gourmet restaurants and shopping malls. Life after skiing is equally colorful. With abundant snow in winter and mountain biking and hiking activities in summer, it is an outdoor paradise suitable for all year round. Whether it is skiing or vacationing, Whistler is a perfect choice.
Whistler is located in the north of Vancouver. It is a famous ski resort and once co-hosted the 2010 Vancouver Winter Olympics. Whistler is considered a health resort by many people because of its pure air and pleasant scenery. You can often find avant-garde designed and well-maintained holiday mansions at the foot of the lake. It is estimated that the owners come here for vacation from time to time. Driving out of Whistler along the highway, the surrounding mountains and rivers are even more beautiful, and there are rarely domestic crowds, which is suitable for a person to appreciate quietly.

This was an incredible experience! The views eating lunch at the top were amazing. Looking down over the lake and mountain ranges. The suspension bridge was incredible! This is a must do experience. There is a cafe with grab and go items and a restaurant at the top. There are shops both at the top and bottom of the gondola with fun items!The ride isn't for those with height fears as the gondola does jerk and shift throughout the ride. The hike might be more height fear friendly.its nice trip
It's worth it to take the gondola: not only is the mountain big and steep but the gondola passes right over fabulous rocks and the view is amazing. Trails at the top are great, especially the Panorama Trail. Swinging Bridge is fun too. The view from the mountain top is amazing, particularly of the Howe Sound Sea below and the surrounding mountains. There are trails to follow, a panoramic viewing deck, a suspension bridge, a restaurant with a souvenir shop. All worth to see. Recomended

Really really awesome and beautiful views that I will never forget. There are some hikes, but overall good experience.
It is said that Whistler was originally considered a health resort by many people because of its pure air and pleasant scenery. Many tuberculosis patients would gather here for recuperation in the summer, but there were few tourists in the winter. However, the owner of a hotel thought that the winter here was more beautiful than the summer, so he promised an old customer who came here every summer: if he came here for vacation in the winter, the owner would waive the summer rent. This is how Whistler's winter prosperity began.

The entire Shannon Falls is particularly spectacular. Although it cannot be compared with the Huangguoshu Waterfall, the surrounding scenery can fully make up for the few shortcomings here. The scenery is picturesque, with beautiful mountains, clear waters and fresh air.
Shannon Falls is located on the Sea to Sky Highway from Whistler to Vancouver. The scenery along the way is beautiful and worth stopping to admire again and again.
If you are going from Whistler to Vancouver, you need to turn around and it is on the side close to the mountain. The parking lot is large and there are several viewing points. It only takes ten minutes to walk to the nearest viewing point.
The scenery along the way is also beautiful. Immersed in the green water and green mountains, it feels refreshing even in the hot summer.
