Whistler Activities
Rafting & Paddling
Kayaking in Whistler
Whistler is home to a magnificent water network connecting glacier fed lakes, rivers and ponds throughout the community. Within the Village of Whistler four major lakes take precedent, Green Lake, Alta Lake, Alpha Lake and Lost Lake. And snaking their way through each lake is a network of rivers and streams perfect for paddling adventures.
The biggest river in Whistler is the River of Golden Dreams. This destination is popular with families, couples and individuals looking to take a casual kayak down the river. The River of Golden Dreams is also the starting point for the popular white water rapids that extreme kayakers seek out.
When visiting Whistler Creekside you’ll want to visit Wayside Park. Walking distance from all Lodging Ovations hotels, the beach park is great for hanging out at on a warm summer day.
Kayaks are available to rent from a myriad of private of locations, as are guided tours. Kayaking is a wonderful way to spend an afternoon with your loved ones or on your own.
White Water Rafting
Looking for a cool activity on a hot summer day why not try whitewater rafting. Thanks to the snowmelt during the summer months Whistler’s local rivers turn into raging white water rapids perfect for the rafting.
During a white water rafting tour, you and a group of friends or others join together to form a 6 – 8 person team to tackle the rapids. Of course, a certified instructor leads the voyage which takes place at one of three rivers in the Whistler area.
The three rivers where you can white water raft include; The Cheakamus River, The Green River & Elaho – Squamish River. Each river varies in degree of difficulty and length of ride. White water rafting tours in Whistler can range from 2.5 hours long (Green River Tour), 4.5 hours (The Cheakamus River) all the way to 8 hours long (Elaho – Squamish River).
