The renowned Whistler après is more than just a post-ski tradition - it’s a celebrated ritual that draws locals and guests alike to toast the mountain lifestyle. Whether you’ve spent the day carving turns on 7th Heaven, relaxing at The Spa, or simply taking in Whistler’s breathtaking alpine vistas, the art of unwinding begins the moment the sun dips behind the peaks.
