What to do and see in Canada, Canada: The Best Sports Complexes

April 17, 2022 Fernanda Pittenger

World class skiing, decadent European style cuisine, ornamental cathedrals, peaceful island life…Canada is a patchwork of thriving cities and majestic wilderness. Montreal beckons travelers with its French charm and booming cultural landscape. In Toronto, the Art Gallery of Ontario is a vision of Frank Gehry architecture and national artistic treasures. The gleaming mountain ranges of Banff set a stunning backdrop for an exploration of the Canadian Rockies.

Whistler Mountain Bike Park

Whistler Mountain Bike Park has something for every level of rider. Gentle, banked cruisers through the Coastal forest. Tight and twisty single track - perfect for intermediate riders. For the armour clad, full face wearing, 50lb. bike group there are steep rock faces, gnarly, root strewn lines, drop offs of all descriptions and more.

Excellent organisation of the lifts, very smooth operation. Brilliant variety of graded trails which you can work your way through. Good for experienced cyclists, but challenging for the absolute beginner. Worth hiring protective gear if you haven't taken yours. Check when the season starts and finishes before you go. Although it looked busy from the bottom, once on the hill you meet very few people. Worth checking out the various bike hire places for the best deals and booking in advance. Plenty of good bars and restaurants nearby too.

What a fantastic experience to go down the Whistler Sliding Olympic track, the fastest in the world. In a few second you will reach 125km/h on board of a competition bobsleigh driven by a Pro. I guarantee you will feel the G force. Thank you Kevin for that pure moment of adrenaline. For people who like to experience something new go for it. How many time in your life will you have the oppoturnity to do bodsleigh? For the one who things, it is too expensive and to short, I will say it is less expensive and as fun as sky diving or bungy jumping. Organisation is very good and staff is awsome listen to their briefing and understand the safety rules to enjoy the ride fully. Thank you for the ride guys, I will be back for the Skeleton.

My husband and I took our 4 year old and we all had a great time. There is something for everyone and one of the pools was even warmer that your average pool. There was a variety of slides, a water playground, a dry playground, a really fun lazy river, and even food trucks. That is all just what is outside, there are even more amenities inside.
