Probably the most famous of Canada’s mountain resorts is beautiful Whistler, which played host to the 2010 Winter Olympics. Outdoor enthusiasts flock here from around the world to enjoy the many activities on offer. This truly is a year-round resort with skiing, snowboarding and snowmobiling popular in the winter, and hiking, mountain climbing and zip-lining drawing visitors in the summer. A ride on the PEAK 2 PEAK Gondola, which links Whistler to Blackcomb and offers 360-degree views of the breathtaking scenery, is a must.

Morning with the Bears: Land Rover Sunrise Excursion

Just outside Whistler, black bears emerge from hibernation from late April onwards, drawn out by fresh spring growth in the alpine meadows and forest edges. This early morning, guided off-road experience takes you into known bear habitats by luxury Land Rover, led by local nature guides and wildlife photographers who know exactly where to look and when to slow down. Morning departures take advantage of the quieter hours around sunrise, when bears are often active, and the light is clean and fresh.

The route climbs into Whistler’s high backcountry, opening up wide views across the Coast Mountain Range. Expect a mix of landscapes along the way, from alpine lakes and waterfalls to old-growth forest and wetlands. Bears are the headline act, but this is a wildlife-rich area, and sightings may also include deer, moose, coyotes and, more rarely, animals like bobcats or mountain lions.

• Daily departures 
• Operates 5 May - 5 November
