Experience bungee jumping in the beautiful wilderness of the Whistler Resort Valley nestled between old growth forests and rugged basalt column cliffs. Feel the exhilaration of jumping from a 160ft (53 meter) bridge spanning 300 ft over the glacial-fed Cheakamus river. Whistler Bungee has an unblemished safety record and its jump masters and operators have over 17 years experience. Options Chest/Waist Harness: Jumping with a chest and waist harness provides both superior comfort and safety at the same time. The chest and waist harness keeps you in an upright position throughout the rebounds and allows you to see more of the canyon while you are waiting to be retrieved. Different cords can be used for this type of jump to either give a faster, higher rebound or a softer, slower rebound. Ankle Harness: The traditional way to jump, gives the ultimate adrenaline rush as you fall head first towards the river. We always use a softer cord for this type of jump so there is less of a jolt on your body when the cord engages. The waist harness provides a secondary safety harness and allows you to be upright while you are being retrieved. Tandem Harness: Too scared to jump by yourself? Or maybe you’re the romantic type. Jump tandem at Whistler Bungee. Both jumpers are put in individual harnesses hooked separately to the cord, then hooked together. We recommend that the couple do not weigh more than 350 lbs – unless you don't mind getting a little wet. Disabilities: The great thing about Bungee Jumping is that almost anybody can do it, including people with disabilities. The only thing that you need to be able to do is have pretty good finger and hand dexterity so that you can attach the retrieval line to the harness system. If you want to go jump in your wheel chair, we first put you in a waist and chest harness, then we rig a separate harness system for the wheelchair. This way we put all the force on the chair and none on the person (not causing damage to the wheelchair in any way). The easiest way to do this is to have three strong people pick you up and throw you over the railing. Tons of Fun. Tour Times: COST: Weekdays from noon, Advance Bookings Required Weekends from 11AM $130 per individual jumper Paintball Whistler Paintball offers daily paintball games.

In addition to cleansing the body, the Scandinavian baths improve blood circulation and release endorphins. Above all, the baths contribute to improvement in one’s physical condition, the attainment of a better quality of life and a sense of well-being. Scandinavian Bath Experience $60.00 Taking place in the heart of nature, the Scandinavian baths experience with all its resulting benefits occurs in three stages. First, the period of warming the body, in which the surface blood vessels dilate and carry more blood to the skin’s surface. The raised body temperature produced through a eucalyptus steam bath, Finnish dry sauna or outdoor baths, causes sweating that cleanses the skin. The second stage consists of closing the pores of the skin through a beneficial rinse in cold water via a Nordic waterfall, a cold shower or bath. The final stage is designed to allow the cardiovascular system to regulate itself through a period of relaxation in the privacy of the relaxation areas. Each sequence, hot–cold–relaxation, takes about 25 to 30 minutes and should be repeated 3 to 4 times for maximum results. The whole experience normally takes about two to three hours. It is important to remain hydrated throughout the process so that most of the toxins are eliminated and optimal well-being is reached through this outdoor relaxation experience, in harmony with nature. Swedish package – 60 Minutes $152.00 Developed by the Swede Pehr Heinrick Ling and focusing on relaxation, this massage contributes to stress reduction, promotes circulation of the blood and eliminates nervous and muscular tension.

You sneak away in the afternoon to fish the evening on a beautiful trout stream. Or perhaps it's a daylong float down a rushing Steelhead river or a 4x4 adventure to a backcountry trout lake. Could be a helicopter ride to fish the estuary of a remote coastal creek in pursuit of our unique sea run cutthroat trout. Sounds too good to be true? Of course not. Whistler offers a quality fly-fishing experience with all the amenities of a world class resort to come home to at the end of the day. A guided fly-fishing trip in Whistler is a great overall outdoor experience. You will be fishing in the coastal rainforest, some of the most rugged terrain in the world. We often encounter wildlife: black bears, deer, eagles and even the occasional moose. The strength of the area as a fly-fishing destination lies in the variety and diversity of the fishing opportunities that we are able to offer. We angle in lakes and rivers ranging in size from the tiny to the very large. We are blessed with diversity in our species of fish as well. We have Steelhead, Dolly Varden, all five species of Pacific Salmon, Rainbow, Kamloops, Cutthroat, Bull and Eastern Brook trout. Whistler is also a great choice for a family 'fishing' vacation.
