It’s not a coincidence that the #1 ski resort and the #1 zipline tour in North America are located in the same place. Whistler is a unique, pristine and thrilling destination which is the perfect backdrop for the originators of North America’s zipline eco-tour.
Ziptrek Ecotours has thrilled hundreds of thousands of visitors year round and in all weather. In five years of operation, Ziptrek has evolved from a trend setting 5 cable zipline tour, to offering multiple eco-activities directly between Whistler and Blackcomb Mountains!
The tour area now boasts 7 suspension bridges, 2 rigid aerial bridges, 10 treetop viewing platforms and a total of 10 ziplines divided between 2 tours. Experience the exhilaration of stepping off a platform, sailing 2300’ through air, dropping over 20 stories from start to finish on one of the world’s longest tree to tree ziplines, while reaching speeds of up to 80 km/hr (up to 60mph)!
The ride is smooth as you glide through the ancient coastal temperate rainforest and over the rushing whitewater of Fitzsimmons Creek. Ziptrek Ecotours combines the thrill of adventure with an educational component that allows visitors to learn about mountain ecology and sustainability while encouraging participants to do their part for the environment.
From Ziptrek's base in Whistler Village, the tour lasts approx 2.5-3 hours. It is fun, safe and perfect for all ages.
