Whistler Accommodation - Arrive by Train

Wednesday, May 31st, 2006

What better way to travel to your Whistler accommodation stay than by train! Riding up the west coast, through Horseshoe Bay, Vancouver, past the city of Squamish, through the BC rockies and along side the west coast ocean view, right up to Whistler, BC, Canada to your accommodations in Whistler.

So if you’re planning a trip to Whistler this summer, the new train service offers an easy and spectacular way to make the journey.
The Whistler Mountaineer ascends 2,000 feet as it passes through Cheakamus Canyon. Passengers in the open-air observation car take in spectacular views. Don’t worry, you can relax from all the excitement once you arrive at Whistler accommodation.

The Whistler Mountaineer, debuted May 1, 2006 takes passengers on a breathtaking, three-hour journey between Vancouver and Whistler aboard restored 1949-51 Pullman coaches. It’s a relaxing alternative to driving the scenic but sometimes treacherous Sea to Sky Highway.

You can catch the train to Whistler from North Vancouver. Most of the passengers arrived at the station by complimentary shuttle from their downtown hotels and the cruise ship terminal.

The train journey to Whistler provides travellers with champagne and orange juice and a tasty but tiny hot breakfast on white linen in the comfortable seats of the Glacier Dome. Travellers to Whistler occasionally glimpsed seals bobbing in Howe Sound below us and the Sea to Sky Highway as the train runs in and out of the rockie mountains.

So if you’re thinking of visiting Whistler, or planning to stay in Whistler in one of the fabulous hotels or accommodations (condos, townhomes, cabins, cottages, etc.), then try the train for a change giving your a more relaxed ride through the Sea to Sky than driving.
