Whistler Village is linked by the Village Stroll, a pedestrian-only causeway lined with shops, restaurants, hotels and other accommodation adjacent to Whistler and Blackcomb mountains.

Retail and accommodations along Village Stroll are built up on an elevated level. Numerous stairs and ramps are located along the Village Stroll and, at each set of stairs, there is a map indicating the closest ramp to reach your destination. These ramps are also each represented on the Access Whistler Map and includes the slope of each individual ramp.

Whistler provides a variety of accommodation options in terms of both accessibility needs and price points. For more information, visit the Tourism Whistler website or contact 1-800-944-7853.

Accessible Parking Permits for Persons with Disabilities are provided through a joint initiative between the RMOW and the Richmond Centre for Disability(link is external). Apply for an Accessible Visitor Parking Permit Application. Find information about the Whistler Visitor Parking Permit Application Information, and find Visitor Permit Holder Information. 

Accessible Gas Stations

There are two accessible gas stations located in Whistler. One is located in the south in the Creekside neighborhood and the other is in the north in the Rainbow neighborhood.

  • South - Whistler Husky Market is an accessible gas station located at 2101 Lake Placid Road in Whistler Creekside. There is always an attendant available 24-hours to assist with re-fueling.

Local transit

All Whistler Transit System vehicles  are accessible.  

Route buses have lifts or low floors to help passengers get on and off. Benches at the front can be raised, allowing mobility aids to strap in. For those who need help finding the right stop, the bus driver will call it out. When you get on the bus, please let the driver know what you need.

If you wish to take an orientation, one of our trainers will show you how to use the equipment on the bus and how to communicate with the driver so your ride is as seamless as possible. The orientations are free and we recommend them to anyone who feels they would like a walk through.

For more information on transit accessibility, visit BC Transit's accessibility page. Should you have any concerns or complaints about the accessibility of the service, please utilize the "Report a Concern" button found at the top right of the screen of BC Transit's accessibility page.

For route, schedule and ticket information, visit whistler.ca/transit

Public washrooms

Locations of accessible public washrooms are listed on the Access Whistler Map. Most hotels have accessible public washroom facilities just off their main lobbies.

Access Whistler Map

Access Whistler Map

The Access Whistler Map was created to show users the most accessible entrances into the Village Stroll and assist users to locate ramps up to the concourse levels, entrances to shops, restaurants and hotels.

The Access Whistler Map works in conjunction with ramp signs, facilitating the accessible movement of people through the Village to access ramps, elevators, accessible washrooms, the mountains and into the trail network system. It was developed with the premise of providing useful information to empower the best decision-making for people of all abilities.

Wayfinding improvements

Throughout Whistler Village, wayfinding improvements have been implemented for persons with disabilities, including:

  • Audible intersection crossing signals;
  • Tactile curb cuts; and
  • Signage at stairs to demonstrate where ramp access is located for buildings on the elevated levels.

Whistler is also in the process of testing new standards for accessible sidewalks.
