Forget the humdrum of traditional transportation! When it comes to getting around Whistler Village, it’s super easy. Lace up those walking shoes or jump on a bike; this town was almost built to be as eco-friendly as possible. Everything your heart desires is a stone’s throw away- whether it’s a gondola ride to the alpine, hiking through the lush forest, having a lazy day at one of the 5 Whistler lakes or shopping till you drop along the village stroll.

But in case you need to get out further than your two feet allow, here are two eco-friendly suggestions:

Whistler Transit Services: You can explore Whistler with the public bus service. This is a convenient and reliable option that’s easy to get around on a budget.
