Cows
nugget’s Advice
Prepare in advance
The activity is under the canopy of the forest so you need to dress according to the weather. Tickets can be purchased online.
Good to know
This is a ropes course set high above the forest floor. It is safe because there are ropes and harnesses that keep you from falling. However, this course requires some upper body strength. It would not be recommended if you are scared of heights.
Recommended time of the year
I don’t know if this is offered in the winter. However, I would recommend doing this in the spring, summer or fall.
Save Money
Last year, there were discounts offered if you purchased before July 1, 2017. I would also look at Groupon to see if it offers other discounts.
About This Day
Take another kind of Whistler adventure on this half-day itinerary. Instead of testing your skills on the slopes, challenge yourself on the Treetop Adventure Course. This ropes course is a wonderful way for families to be in nature and also physically active. The course is managed by the Whistler Adventure Group and is family-friendly. There is even a smaller course for the younger ones. Take as much time as you need and always feel safe while doing it. It is something you can do in many different types of weather as the forest canopy protects you from the elements. After exhausting yourselves, treat the kids to some ice cream at Cows, a Whistler institution. A great day out in Whistler with kids, complete with physical challenges and treats for your tummies.
Treetop Adventure Course
Cougar Mountain Road, Whistler
$$$
The Treetop Adventure Course is an exhilarating, fun-filled activity. It’s located in the middle of a beautiful forest, high above the ground. It is a ropes course, so you are following an obstacle course from tree to tree, challenging your balance, focus and sense of adventure.
DIRECTIONS
There is a complimentary shuttle from Whistler Village. If you have a car, it is a 10-minute drive from Whistler Village toward Pemberton. There is free parking there.
TIP
There are two courses. One is for younger or smaller children. The other is for older and larger children and adults. They are both in the forest, surrounded by beautiful trees and both are challenging and fun.
Cows
4314 Main Street, Whistler
$$$
Cows is a Whistler institution. It has some of the best, creamiest, most delicious ice cream I have ever eaten. It is a perfect treat after a day on the ropes course, or anytime, actually.
DIRECTIONS
Cows is in the centre of Whistler Village. If you take the complimentary shuttle bus, then you will need to go back into the Village after you are dropped off and ask for directions. The Village is about a 15-minute walk from one end to the other, so it would be an easy walk wherever you start.
TIP
This is a popular place, so depending on the day, there might be a bit of a line up.
