Travel through the Yellowhead Pass, in the shadow of towering Mount Robson, the highest peak in the Rockies, before arriving at historic 100 Mile House.
100 Mile House was founded during the days of the Cariboo Gold Rush, when a roadhouse was built here to service gold seekers heading to the goldfields. They travelled along the Cariboo Wagon Road, beginning in Lillooet and frequently stopped at the roadhouse that became known as 100 Mile House. The area is now known primarily for prime cattle ranching and outdoor leisure pursuits.
It's a scenic drive south along the Cariboo Highway and Duffey Lake Road to the edge of Garibaldi Provincial Park and the popular mountain resort of Whistler.
With a full day to enjoy this pretty alpine village you'll be stuck for choice on what to do first. From golf to bear-viewing; boating to hiking, Whistler has it all. Alternatively, check into one of the many luxury Spa's here to enjoy a relaxing treatment or two.
No trip to Whistler is complete without a ride on the Peak 2 Peak Gondola for stunning 360-degree views of Whistler Village, mountain peaks, lakes, glaciers and forests.
