About

Ascend through breathtaking old-growth coastal rainforest terrain to emerge on top of one of the most iconic mountains on the continent. Note that all Whistler #1 participants will be staying at the 4-star Fairmont Hotel in Whistler village, directly across from the base area!

Trail Description

The Blackcomb Ascent Trails are three interconnected hiking trails that wander through breathtaking old growth coastal rainforest terrain on singletrack trails.
