Callaghan Country Wilderness AdventuresAlexander Falls Snowshoe TrailheadFollow the single track snowshoe trail past Access Callaghan Rental

Shop, Warming Hut and the sign board at the end of the Alexander

Falls parking lot and embark upon a journey of wonderment as you

wind your way through ancient rainforests and pristine frozen lakes.

Visit the base of a frozen waterfall and marvel at the fresh tracks of the

local forest inhabitants as they go about their day collecting food and

socializing.

Alexander Falls Explorer 2.5 km

Ascent/Descent: 140 m

Intermediate Dog-friendly

Without a doubt...one of the most

inspiring natural experiences of your

lifetime! An exhilarating single track trail

winding its way down to the base of a

55 metre frozen waterfall.

Warning! Some steep sections make this

a challenge for some novices and

small children.

Express 0.5 km Most Difficult

Ascent/Descent: 140 m Dog-friendly

This is the “direct-on” short cut , to and from the base of Alexander

Falls. Very steep and suitable for aerobic training. Not

recommended in icy conditions

Finger Lakes 4.3 km Intermediate

Ascent/Descent: 215 m Dog-friendly

Snowshoe through a coastal rainforest complete with old-growth

cedars and extensive frozen marshlands. The perfect destination for

a sunny day picnic lunch.

Real Life 4.9 km Easy

Ascent/Descent: 230 m/−90 m Dog-friendly

Most often used as the exit route from Finger Lakes, this trail can

also be accessed from the base area and is best known for being

the home of the oldest cedars in Sea to Sky country. It is a wide,

multi-use trail. Please respect other users’ needs.

Treasure Trail 0.5 km Easiest

Ascent/Descent: Neglible Dog-friendly

Perfect for first timers, families and little ones. Starts at Access

Callaghan / Rental Shop and meanders around the base area

ensuring a comfortable introduction.

Journeyman Lodge and Solitude Valley Trails(See Ski Callaghan ski trail map for visual overview)

Increasingly, more snowshoers are frequenting Journeyman Lodge for

their overnight stays. Average travel times are about five hours,

depending on snow conditions. Recommended route is Real Life / Wild

Spirit Trail, a distance of 12 km and is routinely maintained.

Journeyman Lodge provides the peace and tranquility of the Solitude

Valley and the opportunity to explore old growth forests nestled into

the toe of glacial reaches. Follow a set loop or explore your own path -

the entire valley is yours to discover.

Whistler Olympic Park Dog-friendly TrailsThese trails are a great place to get out and explore while burning off

some of your four-legged friend’s energy. Please access these trails

from the appropriate parking lot. We ask you keep your dog away from

trails that are not designated dog-friendly.

Marley’s Meander 2.2 km Easy

Dog-friendly

This novice snowshoe trail meanders around the Porters Glide ski

trail area. The terrain is relatively flat and divided between open

terrain with great views of the Brandywine Range and a path

through a mixture of old- and new-growth forest. This is a fun place

to take the family for an afternoon snowshoe. It also provides an

opportunity for some members of your group to ski and others to

snowshoe in the same vicinity. You are also welcome to snowshoe

to the side of the Porters Glide Ski trail as well as explore the area

that the ski trail encompasses.

Shuler’s Shuffle 1.8 km Intermediate

Dog-friendly

A bit more challenging and quieter than Marley’s Meander. Catch

glimpses of Brandywine Mountain and Black Tusk while exploring

second growth forest. You may also snowshoe on the Brandywine

View / Metal Dome ski trails but please stay to the outside of the

ski track.

Whistler Olympic Park Day Lodge Trailhead Snowshoe trails wander through different types of forests, take you

to scenic lookout points and around the iconic Olympic competition

venues including the Biathlon Range and Ski Jumps. Whether you

are looking for a slow meander or a grueling grind, there is

something for everyone!

The snowshoe trailhead is on the bottom level outside the rental shop.

From here you can access the entire snowshoe trail network.

Stadium Explorer 3.0 km Easy

Stadium Explorer traverses the Whistler Olympic Park competition

venues from the Ski Jumps to the Biathlon Range. Look for the

Olympic signage that lines the trail with information about the

2010 Winter Games. Portions of the trail may be closed or re-routed

from time to time to accommodate sporting events.

Wetland Wanderer 1.8 km Easy

Wetland Wanderer is a relatively flat trail that makes its way

through beautiful and significant wetlands. This trail is commonly

used as a connector to Alexander Falls Explorer, Madeley Explorer,

Marley’s Meander, and Callaghan Explorer. A portion of the trail

from Marley’s Meander to Callaghan Country Base Area is

dog-friendly for leashed dogs only.

Olympic Explorer 3.0 km Easy

Olympic Explorer is accessible from the North end of the Stadium

Explorer trail. It is a steep climb up and down slopes heading to the

top Ski Jump Trails. Along the way you will enjoy a grand

panorama of the Callaghan Valley. An out and back trail or most

difficult expert descent down Callaghan Grind.

Ski Jump Trails 1.2 km and 2.0 km Easy

The Ski Jump trails navigate up and down small ridges and gullies

in a mature forest of fir trees. These trails are open on weekends

and holidays and are accessed via Olympic Explorer or a steep

climb up the Callaghan Grind.

Lookout Explorer 3.2 km Intermediate

Lookout Explorer is a great choice for a short tour departing from

the Daylodge. The trail traverses a mixture of flat lowlands and

some moderate slopes to a beautiful viewpoint and shelter located

at Top of The World (a great picnic stop). A fun tour for families.

Black Tusk Explorer 2.5 km Intermediate

Black Tusk Explorer is an extension of the Lookout Explorer Trail. The

trail traverses above the Callaghan Valley with great views of Black

Tusk for much of the route. At the furthest point of the trail it drops

down to a creek and then makes the long climb back up to the Top

of the World shelter.

Biathlon Explorer 1.8 km Intermediate

Biathlon Explorer begins on Wetland Wanderer to Three Wolves

art installation. The trail then goes up a steep bank to the Biathlon

Trail System. From there the trail makes its way between the

Olympic Biathlon Ski trails to the north end of the Biathlon Stadium

where it joins Stadium Explorer. Look both ways before crossing

ski trails and avoid the tracks. This is a great trail for star gazing on

clear nights.

Madeley Explorer 2.5 km Intermediate

Madeley Explorer travels along the Madeley Creek wetland through

beautiful forests of mature Cedar. The round trip from the Day

Lodge is a solid hike so plan to spend a few hours completing this

route and bring a picnic lunch. The Madeley Explorer Trail can be

accessed from the Biathlon end of Stadium Explorer or off of

Wetland Wanderer.

Callaghan Grind 1.2 km

Most Difficult

Callaghan Grind is exactly how

it sounds. It is a gnarly, expert

climb to the top of the chairlift.

A challenging access to the

Ski Jump trails.

The convenience of a single Ski Callaghan admission provides

access to the combined trail system of both the Callaghan

Country and Whistler Olympic Park operating areas as one!

Ski Callaghan offers the complete Nordic experience, whether

you are new to Nordic sports or are an elite athlete.

One ticket or pass provides you with

access to over 35 km of snowshoe

trails, with the ability to move freely

between both areas.
