Introducing Whistler Cultural Connector
It’s easy to only see Whistler as a destination for thrill seekers and fitness junkies. But when you look a little deeper you’ll see that there is a thriving arts and culture scene in our small town. To help guide you Whistler has created the Cultural Connector path to offer a scenic stroll that links all cultural institutions and the public art amongst them. You will see the flags and signs around the village. You can join the path at any point and they will guide you along your way.
