View of Alta Lake

Highlight • Lake

The lakes around Whistler, Alta Lake, Nita Lake, and Lost Lake, aren't that great to look at: swimming lakes, built-up areas, etc.
Canada has something completely different to offer.

Alta Lake

Highlight • Lake

Alta Lake was formed by glacial retreat and subsequent sediment deposition, creating depressions that filled with meltwater. Alta Lake and other nearby lakes, such as Green Lake, are part of a large watershed whose waters flow north to the Lillooet River and south to the Cheakamus River.
Historically, water flowed both north and south from Alta Lake, which lies at the top of the pass. This natural dual drainage system of the lake ended with the arrival of settlers.

Lost Lake Passivhaus

Highlight • Rest Area

The Lost Lake PassivHaus is the first passive house in Canada. It is located at the main entrance of Lost Lake Park. The building was initially used as accommodation for the Austrian Olympic Committee and Austrian Broadcasting, which broadcasted live to Austrian audiences during the 2010 Winter Olympics.
After the Games, the Austrian Passive House Group donated it to the Municipality of Whistler. The building now serves as a day lodge, office and meeting space for the Whistler Off-road Cycling Association (WORCA) and Whistler Nordics, as well as a cross-country ski and mountain bike rental shop and a café.

Lost Lake

Highlight • Lake

Tucked in the forest just outside Whistler Village, Lost Lake is a beautiful, quiet spot surrounded by tall evergreens and mountain views. It’s a popular spot for swimming and paddleboarding in summer, with trails around its perimeter perfect for hiking and biking. In winter, the area transforms into a snowy network of cross-country ski and snowshoe trails, offering a quiet escape just minutes from town.

Green Lake

Highlight • Lake

Green Lake is the largest lake in the Whistler region. To the north, it is the source of the Green River, which drains into the Lillooet River. Green Lake was formed during the last Ice Age, when sediment was deposited in the U-shaped valley, forming lake basins. The lake's green color is due to the glacial silt of Fitzsimmons Creek.
From the wooden boardwalk on the southwest shore, we have a magnificent view of the lake and the seaplane landing. In the background, we can see the peaks of the Garibaldi Range, from Wedge Mountain to Mount Currie, including Mount Weart with the Armchair Glacier.
