Whistler Blackcomb

With the launch of the PEAK 2 PEAK Gondola in 2008, Whistler's multi award-winning mountain experience just got a whole lot bigger! The record-breaking gondola joins Whistler and Blackcomb Mountains in only 11 scenic minutes. Boasting the longest unsupported lift span in the world at 3.024 kilometres (1.88 miles), it's also the highest lift of its kind at 415 metres / 1,361 feet.

The Whistler area is bursting with trails, hikes, climbs, and secret pathways that can take you into a pristine natural wonderland. Some routes are minutes from the Whistler Village, while others take you up to the peaks of snow-capped mountains. The PEAK 2 PEAK Gondola connects Whistler and Blackcomb Mountains at their peaks and opens up Blackcomb for summer hiking. Head up Whistler Mountain on the PEAK 2 PEAK Alpine Experience and divide your time between the two. The options are endless!  

Whistler Blackcomb operates year-round with activities and hours of operation changing depending on the season. See Hours of Operation for more information.
