fromAFAR MagazineWhistler is consistently ranked North America’s top ski destination, but the area also offers plenty of adventures for non-skiers. Nita Lake Lodge keeps guests cozy with fireplaces in all 77 rooms and s’mores roasted in the outdoor fire pit every night. At Whistler Sliding Centre, travelers can experience the high-speed thrill of bobsledding. The lodge is only a five-minute walk from the base of Whistler Mountain, where visitors can ride Canada’s longest zip line through the snowy treetops of old-growth rain forest. The lodge recently hired chef Dean Hossack to oversee Aura, a restaurant with tasting menus built around locally foraged ingredients. From $259.
