Whistler Zipline Tours

Ziptrek is the original zipline tour company in Whistler. Ziptrek tours take place over the Fitzsimmons Valley between Whistler and Blackcomb Mountains. This tour starts and ends right in the heart of Whistler Village. Guides provide information on the local ecosystem and Ziptrek uses “free range harnesses” so you can lean back and go upside down safely and in comfort.

Superfly Ziplines are located about a 10-minute drive north of Whistler Village in the Cougar Mountain area. A roundtrip shuttle from the Village is included. Superfly Ziplines use a sit in harness and they have a unique system that allows two guests to ride side-by-side, each on their own cable.

During the summer months (May to October), wear comfortable, supportive athletic or hiking shoes. Open-toed shoes, sandals and dress shoes are not permitted. Wear comfortable clothing appropriate for the weather.

During the winter, we recommend wearing layers of outdoor clothing. Generally we suggest wearing the same thing you would wear skiing or snowboarding.

You will not be able to bring a backpack or any other baggage on tour with you. You will be wearing a full-body harness and backpacks will interfere with this harness. In addition, we do not want anyone to lose or drop anything while ziplining! Please leave all personal belongings at your hotel, small item storage is available for Ziptrek Ecotours guests. Free lockers are available for Superfly guests.

Yes! If you have a camera or small video recording device you can bring it with you. We recommend having a wrist or neck strap so that you can attach it to yourself when ziplining. Go Pro / Contour-style helmet cameras are permitted and do fit securely on the helmets, provided you bring the accessory straps required.

With the exception of The Sasquatch® Tour, Ziptrek Ecotours run all year long in all weather conditions.

Superfly Ziplines' winter season starts mid-December and runs daily until mid-April. Superfly Ziplines and Treetops Adventures are open daily in summer from May until mid-October.

Tours run rain, snow, or shine! Please check the weather and dress appropriately for your tour. Generally, the weather in the Village reflects the weather on course. Refunds will not be given in the event of rain.

Ziptrek has three distinct ziplining tours to choose from: Bear, Eagle and Mammoth. The main difference between the first two tours is the length of ziplines as well as the scenery; both tours last 2.5 to 3 hours in duration and include 5 ziplines. The Mammoth Tour includes both the Bear and Eagle lines in a huge 10-line tour. This tour lasts 4.5 hours and a mid-tour meal will be provided on course.

Ziptrek Bear's 5 ziplines range between 2,000 and 1,100 feet in length, and with the exception of the first line, this tour takes place in the old growth rainforest and you have the option of flipping upside down on the last line!

Ziptrek Eagle's 5 ziplines range between 400 and over 2,000 feet in length! This tour starts in the old growth rainforest but ends in Whistler Village, making some of these lines steeper.

The Ziptrek check-in desk is located inside the Carleton Lodge. You will find the Carleton Lodge at the base of Whistler Mountain across from the Whistler Gondola building. All guests are asked to arrive at the desk 15 minutes prior to the start of their tour to check in.

The Ziptrek check-in for the Sasquatch Tour is located at the kiosk next to the Blackcomb Gondola in the Upper Village. All guests are asked to arrive at the desk 15 minutes prior to the start of their tour to check in.
