Snow sports slay in this world-renowned ski town, found only two hours by car from Vancouver. Once the site of the 2010 Olympic and Paralympic Winter Games, Whistler is the largest ski resort in North America, where a pair of peaks provide endless terrain for an epic ski getaway. But the alpine adventures don’t stop at the slopes. When the weather warms, there’s still a ton to see and do here.

To start, there’s the Cultural Connector—a picturesque pathway that links a series of significant cultural sites, including the Audain Art Museum and Squamish Lil’wat Cultural Centre. For food, head to Whistler in the Fall to attend Whistler Cornucopia, an annual 10-day culinary celebration featuring the best food and drink from Whistler and beyond. For a wellness escape, nip in for Nordic-style hydrotherapy at Scandinave Spa, where you can enjoy steams and soaks set in the West Coast wilderness. Head to the newly-updated Creekside Village for treats and trinkets, or take a jaunt to Function Junction, where art galleries, artisan workshops, and craft breweries showcase a lesser-seen side of Whistler. And for whatever you choose to do while you’re there, there’s a perfectly matched place to stay.
