Is bungee jumping on your bucket list? What better place to check it off the list than during your Whistler vacation? Whistler Bungee is a highly popular activity for both tourists and locals.
For the brave souls seeking an extreme adrenaline rush, bungee jumping in Whistler is an experience like no other. The breathtaking, 160-foot (50-metre) drop from the historic railway bridge over the glacial-fed Cheakamus River will surely get your heart pounding. As you take the plunge, the rush of freefall combined with the stunning natural surroundings will create a memory that will last a lifetime.
Not only is bungee jumping a thrilling activity, but it creates a bond and brings people together. Whether you're jumping with friends, family, or even strangers, the shared experience of taking the leap establishes a bond and lasting memories. The moments leading up to the jump, the collective exhilaration, and the post-jump excitement become stories that you'll recount with enthusiasm and a sense of accomplishment.

With experienced guides leading the way, you can paddle down the roaring rivers, taking in the awe-inspiring scenery and feeling the rush of the water as you conquer each rapid. It's a perfect adventure for both adrenaline junkies and nature lovers.
