Now, it’s also worth noting that the parks in the area are also abundant. The one that you might want to truly take a look at besides the Stanley Park is the so-called Tube Park. This is a destination that you would truly appreciate and enjoy if you go there during the winter.

What is more, there is absolutely no skill or some serious equipment needed. All you need to bring with you is warm clothes, desire for excitement and a sense of adventure.

The Peak 2 Peak Gondola

 

This is one of the engineering marvels which link Whistler Mountains with Blackcomb at their peaks. This is a record-breaking gondola as it spans through a distance of 4.4 kilometers. This is the longest unsupported life span in the entire world, and it’s also the highest of all others of this kind throughout the entire world – it has an elevation of about 435 meters or 1427 feet.

 

The gondola is great for skiers and for regular sightseeing enthusiasts who are willing to explore new horizons at an altitude of about 6000 feet above sea level. You will also gain particularly exclusive access to special hiking trails if you are the hiking kind of person.

 

Different Activities

 

Now, the Whistler Tour would be best taken in the winter because there are more interesting things to do as it’s generally a winter destination. You can snowboard, ski and enjoy a range of different winter sports at this place.

 

However, this doesn’t mean that there is nothing for you to do during the summer. If you are a laid back kind of person who likes spending time in nature, then this is definitely your go-to destination. Whistler is known for a variety of interesting things. For instance, you could easily go ahead and enjoy some thrilling bungee jumping. On the other hand, if you are a fan of high altitudes, you can enjoy ZipTrek Eco tours.

It is always best if you go ahead and visit the village when it’s snowy. This is going to provide you with that dreamy appeal that everyone wishes – it’s like a fairytale. The longer you stay, the better for you. There is absolutely no shortage of tremendously exciting things that you can take advantage of, and this is definitely amongst the best destinations when it comes to winter sports.
