Description
Big Whistler is North America's biggest mountain, that offers an extraordinary ski destination and exciting skiing for all abilities. With a charming alpine scenery and attractive villages at the foot of the slopes, it's more like Europe than it's Rocky neighbours. There is a good range of facilities in the resort centre, with a lively range of après ski.
