Imagine your children bounding like rabbits through the snow on a day of snowshoeing, a truly Canadian way of getting around in the winter. Feel what it's like to be a flying reindeer as you glide through tree tops on Whistler's zip-line network. And who could go to Whistler/Blackcomb without skiing the famous slopes?!? If you're not chasing the kids through the snow or playfully tossing snowballs, relax by the fireplace and share some quality time together as a family.
