The Mountains

Located in the Coast mountain range of British Columbia, Whistler averages an annual snowfall of 11.74 metres  (38.5 feet). This tremendous snowfall is largely due to its proximity to the coast, bringing moderate temperatures ideal for big fluffy flakes. Between the two mountains Whistler boasts 3,307 hectares (8,171acres) of terrain, with 200+ marked runs to explore.

Snowboarding in Whistler

With over 8,000 acres of terrain, Whistler Blackcomb is the biggest ski resort in North America. Whistler and Blackcomb mountains, of similar size, sit side by side, linked by the Peak 2 Peak gondola (the biggest suspension gondola in the world). A typical week at camp is split between the 2 mountains to give you the chance to experience the best of both, and there is plenty of terrain to challenge snowboarders of all abilities. 

The creative and well-maintained freestyle parks offer features suitable for beginners through to professional snowboarders, each marked as ‘small’, ‘medium’, ‘large’ or ‘extra-large’.

Freeriders will love the challenge of steep black and double black diamond terrain, big alpine bowls and the abundance of amazing trees to explore.

The boardercross course and the GS race centre are super fun and are open to everyone. There is plenty of clearly marked beginner and family terrain, and ample choice of blue runs for intermediate riders to work on their skills.  

Our coaches have many years of experience and know these 2 mountains inside out. They will show you secret spots and take you to the best powder stashes, places you would never find exploring on your own.
