About Whistler Eco Tours
Whistler Eco Tours has been bringing visitors back to nature since 2001, operating guided outdoor experiences and boat rentals from their base at Wayside Park on Alta Lake. Their philosophy centres on sustainable, low-impact adventures that let guests connect with the natural beauty of the Whistler Valley without leaving a heavy footprint.
Their rental fleet includes canoes, single and double kayaks, stand-up paddleboards, e-bikes, cross-country bikes, and townie bikes — all available by the hour, half-day, or full day. Guided options include the River of Golden Dreams paddle tour, voyageur canoe group trips on Alta Lake, mountain biking excursions, and hiking tours through Whistler's trail network. They also run winter snowshoe tours through old-growth forest when the snow falls. All guided experiences include equipment, instruction, and a knowledgeable local guide.
Whistler Eco Tours stands out for their commitment to environmental education and their prime waterfront location. Staff take time to teach guests about the local ecosystem, wildlife, and Indigenous history of the area. Their Wayside Park base is a scenic five-minute drive from Whistler Village with free parking and direct lake access, making it an easy and relaxing way to spend a morning or afternoon off the slopes.
