| Both
Whistler and Blackcomb mountains surround the resort of Whistler.
As the mountains cover 7000 acres and rise one mile high from
the lively, yet beautiful village, it is hardly surprising that
this resort is quite frequently voted the best in North America.
This pedestrianised resort was designed by skiers, therefore
you should be able to find everything you could wish for in
this charming village.
