While Whistler Blackcomb is known for its amazing ski experiences, the mountains are equally as beautiful in summer, offering a wide range of outdoor activities like hiking, biking, wildlife watching, and even golf.
Set in the heart of British Columbia’s Coast Mountains, Whistler has earned recognition as one of Canada’s premier places to play golf, offering championship courses surrounded by towering mountain peaks, forests and glacier-fed lakes. It’s a setting where scenery of the coast mountains is often as memorable as the golf itself.
The day doesn’t end on the 18th green. One of the destination’s unique attractions is the opportunity to continue the experience high in the mountains. Visitors can ride the Blackcomb Gondola to Christine’s for gourmet dining overlooking the alpine landscape, or take the Whistler Village Gondola to the Roundhouse Lodge, where panoramic views provide the perfect backdrop for a relaxed meal or drink after a round.
Whistler’s award-winning gold courses include:
Chateau Whistler Golf Club

Course Designer: Robert Trent Jones, Jr
Nicklaus North Golf Club

For Australian travellers planning a Canadian summer holiday, Whistler is emerging as a destination where championship golf, mountain landscapes and memorable dining come together in one of North America’s most picturesque alpine settings.
