Sightseeing
Great beginner to intermediate mountain bike trails that will have you progressing in no time with a great lake to cool down afterwards. In the winter you can get a pass to explore the x-country ski trails.

City/town information
Nice small town with farms, outdoor adventure, and a quieter pace of life. One of the most picturesque mountains—Mount Currie—sits right at the end of the valley. The famous (and oft-instagrammed) Joffre Lakes is near too. Only 25 min away from Whistler!
