Skiing, snowboarding, heli-skiing/boarding, or snow cat skiing/boarding are just a few of the more obvious winter sports to be enjoyed at Whistler but what if you don't ski or snowboard? How about taking some lessons? You will be up on the slopes with the rest of them in no time. You can also enjoy the slopes without skiing at all. Whistler is one of the first resorts to offer the Sno-limo. Take a ride down the slopes on a specially built seat with skis attached that is completely controlled by the trained operator standing behind you. It may be the only time you get to experience the magical feeling of skiing down the slopes.

If skiing and snowboarding are just not your thing, have no worries. You will still enjoy your Whistler timeshare and find plenty to do to keep you busy on your winter holiday. There is the tube park that the young and young at heart enjoy equally. Whistler also offers horse drawn sleigh rides, dog sledding, snow mobiling, cross country skiing, skating and snowshoeing. For those looking for something a little different to do on their holiday, try a snow cat tour. Take a 3 hour relaxing tour up the snow covered mountain while being entertained by your informative operator. With CD stereo surround sound, wraparound glass for panoramic views and comfortable upholstered bucket seats, you are sure to be delighted with the ride. When you arrive at the top, the Crystal Hut awaits you with a fondue dinner ready to enjoy.

Another great tour that is a little different and fun for the whole family is the backcountry wildlife tour. Take a ride on a specially built all terrain hotrod with a professionally trained driver/guide and navigate the backcountry. Search for bald eagles, visit a waterfall or take a dip in the hot springs and enjoy a family picnic. This is a year round, safe, fun, eco-friendly, adrenaline packed tour that is simply unforgettable.

One last adventure that is absolutely not to be missed by any adventure seeker or adrenaline junky is the Ziptrek Ecotour. Rated the #1 zipline tour in North America, this eco-tour has thrilled hundreds of thousands of visitors year round. The area includes 7 suspension bridges, 2 rigid aerial bridges, 10 treetop viewing platforms and a total of 10 ziplines divided between 2 tours. Glide through the coastal rainforest and over the rushing whitewater reaching speeds of up to 80 km/hr. This will be an experience of a lifetime.

Warm weather brings a whole new roster of activities for owners of timeshares in Whistler.. Biking, hiking, sightseeing and fishing are some of the more common spring/summer activities. Venture up the mountain by gondola or hike the trails and discover pristine alpine lakes, beautiful meadows surrounded by snow covered peaks and glaciers, and if you are lucky maybe some wildlife as well. Looking for the not so common? Then Whistler is definitely the place you want to go for your vacation. There are plenty of things to do that are different, exciting and fun for the entire family. Go rock climbing or take a glacier hike. Experience rap jumping which is face forward rappelling off the top of Whistler Peak, 5000 feet about the valley floor. Make your way to the top of the mountain on the newly developed scrambling route. This route combines the use of hand and foot holds but is not as difficult as actual rock climbing. Most of these activities are great for the entire family and do not require prior experience.

When you have explored the 8,000 plus acres of terrain on both mountains, head down to the valley and experience Village life. Start by visiting one of the many alpine spas. There you will find a multitude of treatments to soothe those muscles and pamper yourself. It has been said that it is worth the trip to Whistler just for the shopping. A shopper's paradise, the Village of Whistler includes boutiques, souvenir shops, theatres, and art galleries. The nightlife at Whistler has become almost as famous as the skiing and snowboarding. Live music, world famous DJs and plenty of dancing await those of all ages. For those quieter evenings, great ambience and lots of fun can be found at any of the restaurants, pubs and lounges scattered throughout the Village where you can cozy up by a warm fire, sip a warm drink and enjoy a romantic evening.

Whistler, BC offers so many year round activities that you could not possibly experience it all in one vacation, and with the Winter Olympics coming in 2010 it can only get better, if that is possible.
