The four-season destination was perfected in Western Canada, where visitors know every day is a great day for seeing and exploring
snow-capped mountains, boating on whale-filled waters, playing courses designed by golf's legends, or experiencing urban fine
dining and entertainment.
This stretch of unspoiled natural beauty is so revered, in fact, that Vancouver Island recently was named the top North American
island by Conde Nast Traveler. The prestigious travel magazine also named Vancouver and Victoria the second and third best
cities in the Americas, respectively.
Vancouver
Vancouver, host of the 2010 Winter Olympics, wows guests with pristine parks, cultural and historic attractions, decorated
restaurants, professional sports action and world-class shopping - all enjoyed amid an unparalleled scenic coastal backdrop.
Whistler
Collectively one of North America's premier ski areas, Whistler and Blackcomb offer more than 200 trails to satisfy skiers
and snowboarders of all skill levels. You could be there to watch Olympic history unfold in 2010, or enjoy Whistler and Blackcomb's
many charms before and after the world's greatest athletes showcase their skills.
Canadian Rockies
Canada's first national park, Banff, also resides in the West, as well as the equally revered Jasper National Park. Skiers,
hikers and mountain bikers in these parks share the pristine landscape with bear, moose and other abundant types of wildlife.
Canmore
Visitors have discovered this quieter, sleepier version of Banff en masse, but this simply beautiful mountain hideaway has
retained its small-town vibe. Canmore is simply the perfect place for enjoying a scenic mountain getaway.
