Catch the alpenglow on a two-hour guided winter zipline through Whistler’s old-growth forest. Four lit lines, short van transfer from the village, and professional guides make this a brisk, accessible evening adrenaline fix.
More ways to explore the area's outdoor wonders
The sun slips behind the peaks of Whistler and Blackcomb, and the old-growth forest exhales a cold, pine-scented breath. You meet your guide in the village, get clipped into a harness and helmet, and a short van ride takes you higher—where four ziplines thread through snow-dusted firs and soft twinkle lights begin to appear as dusk tightens its hold. Each line pulls you forward: wind nudging your cheeks, the forest seeming to lean in and watch.
