Alpine Hiking

Grab yourself a sightseeing ticket and head up the Whistler Gondola for some of the most breathtaking scenery our beautiful planet has to offer. All hikes are graded easy, moderate or difficult ranging from the 15 minute looped Spearhead Walk to the 4 hour high note trail. You will find wildflowers, wildlife and scenic viewpoints that will become etched in your mind forever. Take the peak express traverse and head up peak express chairlift to feel like you’re on top of the world. Make a day of it with a mountaintop BBQ at the top of Whistler.
