Whistler, Canada is the first stop for the top ski and snowboard destinations around the world. Skiing and snowboarding are both popular winter leisure sports in Canada, though there is also a strong competitive element here as well. Currently, the resort is working on their ‘New Winter 2018/2019’ campaign, which is striving to bring three new lifts to the heart of the resort and more, estimated at approximately fifty-two million United States dollars. These restorations will solidify Whistler as the top destination for skiing and snowboarding in Canada, as well as the world.

Towering mountains, crisp snow, and a record-breaking gondola make Whistler remarkable for fun and quality exercise. Afterward, head to the slopeside village to partake in vibrant nightlife at either the GLC or Merlin’s Bar for sophisticated, but energetic socializing. Heli-skiing and the GMC race center are also offered here for those seeking an extreme thrill.

After checking out the first destination in Canada, many tourists will be extremely excited to migrate down south to the next destination for some prime-time snow shredding.
