It’s no secret that Whistler offers an abundance of activities throughout the winter and summer months. Whether it be a ski day on the snow-covered mountains or a fun-packed day of water sports and relaxation by the lakes, both are busy and thrilling times to visit. With summer coming to an end and the promise of winter snow only a mere few weeks away, Autumn has arrived. It brings the beauty of red and orange-covered mountains, cozy fires, red wine, and the locals’ enthusiastic buzz and anticipation of the first snowfall. This is the opportune time to recharge and make the most of what Whistler has to offer without the crowds that the peak seasons attract.
