Skiing at Whistler Blackcomb

Whistler Mountain’s gentler Emerald 6 Express and Harmony 6 Express zones provide great intermediate groomers like Harmony Ridge and Rabbit Tracks. We also recommend checking out the Big Red Express, which is a high-speed 6-person chair that houses easy skiing greens and blues. Whistler Mountain doesn’t just feature gentle terrain. The top of Whistler Mountain via the Peak Express is no joke, with direct access to The Couloir and The Cirque runs, which are both double blacks and have some seriously rowdy terrain. The Peak Express also provides access to the legendary Peak to Creek run, an 11-kilometer descent that is North America’s longest single trail and is one of our favorite descents, but it’s truly a leg burner.

Blackcomb Mountain’s 3,414 acres deliver more advanced terrain. The 7th Heaven lift provides above-treeline bowl skiing with some of the resort’s best views and access to the Showcase T-bar, which brings you to another amazing bowl. The Glacier Express also accesses expert terrain, including Spanky’s Ladder’s steep chutes and the Blackcomb Glacier, offering a near-backcountry experience within the bounds of the resort. At the bottom of Glacier Express, take the Jersey Cream lift to access some steep trees and Whistler Blackcomb’s legendary terrain parks, which are designed for the best freeskiers in the world.
