Brilliant set of ski lifts taking you in stages right up to the top of the mountain and then across to the other peak. Fantastic views over Whistler and exciting thing to do. Bit expensive but you miss out on the essence of Whistler without doing this
Well worth the money. We were at whistler for a conference definitely a world class resort area. We were able to go on the peak to peak it is very accessible there is staff everywhere to help you and direct you. The views of whistler were beautiful.
We drove from Vancouver to Whistler for a day trip. The drive is magnificent. When you get to Whistler be sure to get a ticket for the Peak 2 Peak Gondola ride. It is a beautiful way to spend about 10 minutes where you capture breath-taking views of the whole ski area. We were there in the summer (August) amidst a bad drought so there was a bit of a haze in the air due to dust and a lack of rain. Still we had fantastic views. I bet this is spectacular during the winter. We were lucky and caught a glimpse of a bear cub on one of the rides back down.
Lovely long run do to as the last run of the day. Loved the Dave Murray downhill. We did not have much snow over Xmas, New Year so it got a bit icy towards the end.
It is brilliant , However it is long . could be exhausting.Benches are provided at the side but only when you are near the end.
I live in whistler and know peak to creek as a ski run from the top of whistler Peak chair to the bottom of whistler creekside. They you do it again or stop in at Dustys. It can be awesome however it has not been open this year so far to my knowledge.
One of the best and longest cruiser blue runs in the world. Unfortunately, it's quite popular and because of it's length it is groomed poorly. If you watch the grooming reports, and head directly to this run the morning after BOTH top and bottom sections have been groomed, you can have an amazing, fast, and clean run. By mid-afternoon it will be chopped up. If the bottom half has not been groomed, the trenches dig knee deep. In those conditions it can take up to an hour to finish the run. Even when it is groomed, it's so massive they don't spend enough time piste-busting. I really hope they improve the nightly grooming on this run as on a good day it's absolutely stunning.
This run starts at the very top of Whistler and ends at Creekside, the lowest point in Whistler Blackcomb. I am a local so I don't stop for pictures but unless it is a sunny day and the groomer has been top to bottom I do stop to rest. It is mostly a challenging blue but some pitches would be rated black at any other mountain. On a groomed day a strong intermediate skier can handle the run with lots of rests. At 11 km the run isn't the longest at WB but there are almost no flat areas so the skis are constantly turning. If you are not in good skiing shape I wouldn't recommend it. Usually the bottom half is groomed once a week. At that point there are signs which will direct you away from the bottom half. If you go down there, you must go to the bottom. On a none groomed day you can expect mostly bumps on steep pitches for 5-6 km, so beware if you aren't a skilled skier or if you have eastern legs. To get to half way you will already have come down 2500-3000 feet on steep terrain. This run finishes many skiers especially if done late in the day. The good news is there is a pub at the bottom.
You must go all the way to the top. To get there you have to take a small hike, but well worth the serene views. Staff are so pleasant and helpful.
Peak to Creek is a must-do for any visitor to the resort. When fresh snow has fallen to the valley, this run is amazing combined with the steeps of West Bowl or Bagel Bowl. Without fresh snow it is a good idea to check that it's been groomed otherwise be prepared for crud and moguls. You can stop at the intersection of Highway 86 and Peak to Creek to try and assess the conditions, but that won't really reveal the conditions further down. Once you drop past Highway 86, you're committed to riding all the way to Creekside - it's a leg burner if you don't stop. The run features open pitches, rollers, a few low-angle flats, and access to some other runs like Big Timber & Home Run (never groomed). You paid for all that vertical - ride it!
