Whistler is a famous ski resort town just north of Vancouver, Canada. It was made even more famous when the Olympic Winter Games took place here in 2010. With world-class skiing in the winter and hiking and biking in the beautiful mountains in the summer, the town of Whistler is packed year-round.

When the snow melts in the spring, one activity dominates Mountain Biking. People, young and old, come from all over to experience this adrenaline-filled activity, commonly known as the best downhill bike park in the world. Enthusiasts live and breathe biking, and talk about it at the bars, at work, and on the ski slope on the way up.

The thought to combine the lift and the bike park started in the early 1990s and while most people thought the idea of a ski lift for mountain biking wouldn’t work, more than 500 people showed up for the opening day and it hasn’t slowed down since.

With 70 well-kept trails, and bike rentals and lessons all located in the village, this is the perfect activity for any adrenaline lover. Whether you can keep up with the big ramps and the bikers doing 360’s or want to start off on the smaller technical trails, or just want to watch the many competitions held here every summer, there is something for everyone at the most famous downhill bike park in the world!

Ziplines are an extremely unique and exhilarating experience that is now easier to do than ever while traveling. If you’ve never been ziplining, it basically consists of being strapped to a pully which is attached to a cable. Gravity takes over and you fly at high speeds from one end of the cable to another.

It’s common to find zipline experiences all over the world now. Here are some of the most extreme and craziest ziplines on the planet.

Orocovis, Puerto Rico: “The Beast”

Sun City, South Africa: “Zip 2000”

This South African zip line will send you hurling over the plains at 100 miles per hour. That extreme speed makes it the fastest ride in the world! Are you brave enough to give it a try?

Whistler, BC, Canada: “The Sasquatch”

Whistler is a world-famous ski destination, but that’s not all you can do there. Here are 5 alternative adrenaline-inducing activities you can try if you are vacationing in this snowy part of Canada.

Whistler Sliding Centre

At the Whistler Sliding Center, you can zoom down the world’s fastest ice track. You will jump onto a four-person bobsleigh guided by a trained pilot who will direct you head first down the slope at 125 kilometers per hour. Our knees are weak just thinking about it.

Whistler Blackcomb Snow School

Whistler is home to one of the best snow schools in North America. Here, you can get private ski and snowboard lessons, whatever your age.

Whistler Mountain Bike Park

In Winter you can jump on a mountain bike and take on one of the 70 trails through mountain zones. The park draws in bikers from all around the world and is sure to get the adrenaline pumping.

Whistler Bounce Acrobatic Academy

In Whistler, you can unleash your inner child and take on Olympic string bed trampolines. You will learn to perform basic trampolining tricks and are guaranteed to have a whole lot of fun.

Peak 2 Peak Gondola

The best way to take in the breathtaking views of Whistler is to ride a cable gondola up Whistler Mountain. The journey is 1.88 miles and operates at 1,430 feet, so it’s not for the faint of heart.
