Relax, Refresh, and Take in the Views
Ride the PEAK 2 PEAK Gondola—Together
There’s something intimate about soaring above a valley together. On the PEAK 2 PEAK Gondola, you’re not just sightseeing—you’re suspended in a glass cabin 436 meters in the air, moving seamlessly between Whistler and Blackcomb Mountains. It’s a great place to hold hands, snap a panoramic selfie, or simply sit in awe of alpine views that stretch as far as the eye can see. And when you disembark? Enjoy a drink or snack at one of the mountaintop lodges, lingering just a little longer.
Unwind with a Couple’s Spa Day
Shared serenity is a powerful thing. Book a couple’s massage, soak in outdoor hydrotherapy baths, or detox in a eucalyptus steam room at one of Whistler’s world-class spas. With mountain views and calming forest energy all around, it’s a peaceful pause that reconnects you—mind, body, and heart.
Evening Strolls That Steal Your Breath (and Maybe a Kiss)
As the sun dips below the peaks, Whistler’s light takes on a golden glow. Take a meandering walk through the Village or along the Valley Trail, hand in hand. It’s the kind of romantic simplicity that sparks conversation, connection, and maybe even a spontaneous slow dance by the lake.
Get Your Hearts Racing—In More Ways Than One
Fly Side by Side on a Zipline
Want to know if you're really compatible? Try ziplining side-by-side through a canopy of ancient cedars. With Ziptrek Ecotours, you'll race across lush ravines and share laughter, thrills, and maybe a few nervous squeals. It’s a memory you’ll talk about for years—and a great metaphor for love: trust, leap, enjoy the ride.
Conquer the Suspension Bridge Together
The Cloudraker Skybridge isn’t just a walk—it’s a shared adventure suspended 7,200 feet above sea level. As you cross the swaying bridge together, you'll feel the rush of the breeze, the awe of the vast landscape, and the closeness that comes from doing something a little bold side by side.
Dine Under the Open Sky
Patio Dining with a View
Warm evenings, fresh mountain air, and the low hum of Whistler life all around—patio season here is magic. Settle in at GLC (Garibaldi Lift Co.) for front-row views of the Whistler Bike Park and upscale lounge vibes. Craving something more casual? Dusty’s Bar & BBQ brings legendary nachos and the occasional live show. And if you're in the mood for cozy cabin charm, Merlin’s Bar & Grill in the Upper Village is perfect for an easygoing date night with live music and a laid-back feel.
Sip, Savor, and Fall in Love (With the Wine, Too)
If your love language is food and wine, don't miss a Winemaker’s Dinner. Each evening features a curated menu where every dish is paired with the perfect pour—plus stories and insights from the winemaker themselves. It’s sensual, sophisticated, and delightfully indulgent.
Plan the Perfect Alpine Picnic
Want something a little more private? Grab gourmet bites from Rendezvous Lodge or Roundhouse, then take a scenic lift ride into the alpine zone. Tuck into a wildflower meadow, lay out your picnic, and toast to love with a view that rivals any postcard. It’s secluded, spontaneous, and wildly romantic.
