Start the day with an adrenaline rush by plunging right into the thick of the action with bungee jumping in Whistler. Enjoy the feeling of freefalling off a bridge, some 91 metres (300 ft) over the glacial-fed Cheakamus River surrounded by Whistler’s gorgeous mountainscape. Choose to jump alone or with a partner. Either way, it is an exhilarating and unforgettable experience in winter. 

Follow that with another rip-roaring activity—ziplining, where you traverse rapidly through an alpine forest on a high wire. Explore centuries-old forests both on foot and zipline with the Superfly Zipline tour. “Fly” side by side with your partner between trees over short distances before the final flourish—one where you soar through the air amidst the breathtaking mountain view before landing in Whistler Valley. 

Enough arboreal adventures? How about sticking to the ground next? Feel the wind in your face as you slide down the thrilling tubing hill at bublyTM Tube Park, specially designed for the young and the young at heart. With multiple lanes and varying degrees of steepness, snow tubing is an excellent way to experience the joy of going down a snow slope without needing to ski. 

After a day filled with exhilarating winter activities, take it slow with dinner and drinks at the Dubh Linn Gate Irish Pub & Patio at Pan Pacific Mountainside. One of the best pubs in Whistler, it offers hearty pub fare with a renowned selection of draft and craft beers in a rousing atmosphere filled with live music. If you need some fresh air to clear your head, step outside to the heated patio and be rewarded with magnificent outdoor views. 

Retire to your suite after your pub visit, or if you still have some energy left, take a refreshing dip in the hotel’s heated hot tubs. Sit back, relax and enjoy the spectacular mountain views from the tub while reliving the exciting day that had just passed.
