The Adventure Group Whistler operates guided outdoor experiences from Cougar Mountain and Whistler Village, offering a range of seasonal and year‑round activities across the Sea to Sky corridor. The company leads Side-by-Side backcountry tours that traverse rugged terrain and creeks, Superfly tandem ziplines that launch guests up to 1.3 km and reach speeds of up to 90 km/h, green-river whitewater rafting on class 2–3 rapids, and beginner-friendly wilderness snowmobile adventures through old-growth forests and alpine trails.
Vallea Lumina evening walks—available in winter and summer editions—transform a 1 km forest trail into a multimedia night experience, while a daily shuttle provides multiple pick-up times between Whistler Village and Cougar Mountain Basecamp for convenient access. The TAG Day Ticket grants unlimited access to Cougar Mountain activities for a full day of exploration.
Tours accommodate a wide range of skill levels: some experiences are tailored for families and beginners, while others suit seasoned drivers and thrill-seekers. Each offering includes guided instruction and on-site support to prioritize safety and local knowledge. Reservations are recommended due to limited space on shuttles and activity rosters. The Adventure Group Whistler focuses on creating memorable, professionally guided outdoor experiences that showcase Whistler’s natural scenery and backcountry playgrounds.
