Experience the heights of Vancouver's Whistler Mountain on a shared group or private tour. Arrive at base camp and ride up in a gondola to the alpine shop to start your climb via ferrata. Use rungs built into the rocks to reach the peak and take in stunning views.
Make your way to the village base camp and climb into a gondola, watching the world below becoming smaller and smaller as you ascend towards the starting point of your climb.
Step off the gondola and enter the local partner's alpine shop to learn about the special lanyard system that will allow you to climb Whistler with ease. Look up in awe at the peak and clip yourself onto the cable that leads up the rocks.
Take it rung by rung until you reach the top of the mountain and reward yourself with unforgettable views of Garibaldi Provincial Park. On the way back, choose to follow a 3-kilometer hiking path or take a chairlift.

Before yesterday I had never been mountain climbing, and wanted to give it a try. I didn’t realize the challenge that this activity would be. My guide Keek was excellent! She gave great advice about how to climb and was full of useful information about the area. I am a 54 year old reasonably fit woman and I highly recommend this activity for anyone that is adventurous. You get a Birds Eye view of Whistler and the mountains and glaciers that surround it. Definitely a memorable day.
Awesone route and excellent guide. Victor was awesome and made the experience very enjoyable!
Great intro to via ferrata! The route was fairly easy with a couple of interesting spots to get the adrenaline flowing. It was shorter than expected - the estimated duration includes time it takes to upload to mountain, get fitted with equipment, then hiking to the base of the via ferrata. We went at a nice pace that was just right thanks to our guide Jeremy. Highly recommend the experience especially the morning session so you can explore the hiking trails after! Also, bring gloves for the steel cables!!
Very great activity with nice mountain guides. Also suitable for beginners.
Victor was a very good guide! He knew a lot about the mountains and took care of everyone in the group. The panorama was fantastic!
Such a fun activity! Our guide was so helpful with every step along the way and made for an exciting climb
Via ferrata on whistler was awesome! Great experience for an adventure on the mountain while feeling super safe attached to steel wires.
Mike was a fantastic guide, I had a memorable experience and he was a major part of that! 10/10 will recommend this tour to everyone I know who is coming out here. Honestly, such a fun time and Mike was always there to make sure everything went smooth! Thanks very much I had an awesome experience!
