Kick off the day with some spring skiing! March is one of the best months to hit the slopes, with fewer crowds and a mix of fresh snow and sunshine.

  • For beginners: Try the Olympic Learning Area or book a lesson with Whistler Blackcomb’s ski school.
  • For experienced skiers: Head up Blackcomb for long, cruise-y runs and stunning views.
  • For thrill-seekers: Explore the terrain parks or take on a backcountry adventure.

Tip: Take advantage of midweek skiing for quieter runs and shorter lift lines!

 

Afternoon: Off-Mountain Adventures
