Whistler Blackcomb is the largest ski resort in North America with 8,171 acres of terrain.
Whistler Blackcomb is two separate peaks connected at the top by the Peak 2 Peak gondola — a 4.4 km horizontal ride suspended 436m above the valley floor. Whistler Peak (2,182m) has the alpine bowls; Blackcomb has the Horstman glacier and steeper chutes like Couloir Extreme.
Hiring or renting ski equipment in Whistler is the smart choice for most visitors. Luggage costs for ski gear can exceed the price of a week-long rental, and local shops offer ski rental perfectly tuned for Whistler's terrain — all levels level, 200 km of pistes at up to 2182m.
Through GetSki you can rent any combination of equipment in Whistler — from individual items to complete packages. Each service is delivered by verified local shops with on-mountain pickup and free swaps during your stay.
Snowboards for all riding styles available — freeride, freestyle, and all-mountain shapes tuned for Whistler's all levels-level terrain. Bindings adjusted to your boots on pickup; free swap if conditions change mid-stay.
Properly fitted ski boots are the single biggest factor in comfort on 200 km of pistes. Local shops carry the latest models from Salomon, Atomic, Lange, and Tecnica — fitted by qualified bootfitters who know the terrain. If they don't feel right after the first day, swap them at no extra cost.
Certified helmets (CE EN 1077) from €5/day. Modern shells with MIPS rotational impact protection are available at most shops in Whistler. Helmets are mandatory for under-18s in many resorts and strongly recommended for everyone — better to rent than fly with one.
Waterproof shells and insulated jackets sized for layering. Whistler's typical november – april conditions can swing from −15 °C blue-sky days to wet sleet at lower altitudes — rental options cover both.
Skis + boots + poles bundled, the most cost-effective option for full-week stays. Typical pricing in Whistler: CA$38–CA$75/day with package discounts of 15–25 % compared to renting items separately. Package level matched to your skill — beginner, sport, or performance.
Properly sized children's skis, boots, and helmets — adjusted to weight not just height for safer release-binding behaviour. Kids' ski sets are typically 30–50 % cheaper than adult equivalents in Whistler; many shops offer free helmets when renting a full kids' package.
Forgiving skis (shorter than your height, softer flex) with comfortable beginner boots — built to make first turns easier on Whistler's nursery slopes. Some shops bundle ski-school discount vouchers with their beginner packages, worth checking at booking.
Lightweight aluminium and carbon poles available individually if you're bringing your own skis and boots. Sized to your height by the shop on pickup.
UV-protected lenses for high-altitude bluebird days, plus high-contrast lenses for flat light and snow conditions — both worth having for Whistler's top altitude of 2182 m.
The Longhorn Saloon at the base of Whistler Peak is a Canadian institution — opening it early for the first day of the season is a local tradition, and the bar stays open all summer for mountain bikers too.
Typical daily ski rental in Whistler costs CA$38–CA$75. Booking a full week package usually saves 15–25% compared to daily rates.
The Peak 2 Peak gondola has two glass-bottomed cabins marked with silver on the outside, running every 12 minutes. Time your crossing to catch one of those specific cabins for the most spectacular view of the valley below.
