Whistler Village
Whistler Village is the hub of the community and was created with the visitor in mind. West Coast architecture mixes with a quaint alpine atmosphere and spectacular mountain views are always in sight.
The Village was designed to be a car-free town centre where people could flow like water. Being a strong focal point for the community, the Village has a town hall, fire and police station, medical clinic, museum, library, and more than 200 shops and 90 restaurants. From people-watching to sipping a latte on a patio, there is always something to do in Whistler Village.
