Peak 2 Peak Gondola

A gondola linking the summits of Whistler and Blackcomb mountains. Its longest span is 3 km, reaching 436 metres above the ground, and some cabins have glass floors.

The gondola opened in 2008. It is 4.4 km long, and the span between its two towers is about 3 km without support. The one-way trip takes about 11 minutes, and the system has set several world records. In summer, you can buy a Sightseeing Pass to ride the village lifts up the mountain, then take the Peak 2 Peak gondola back and forth between the two peaks. Glass-floor cabins require a separate queue. The Roundhouse at the summit has a restaurant and a viewing platform. It is more than 10 degrees colder at the top than at the base, so bring a jacket even in summer. The gondola may close in high winds.
