This 160-ft bungee jump above a glacial-fed river is one of Canada’s most extreme attractions

Well, the weather outside is frightful, but bungee jumping is so delightful! Don’t let the snow stop you this season, ’cause one of the world’s craziest adrenaline experiences is waiting for you out in Whistler! If you’re ready for a 160ft jump over a glacially-fed river (of course you are!), then read on.

Note: We are not recommending non-essential travel in the midst of the pandemic. Save this one for later when it’s safe to do so!

Oh, you’re still here? Awesome. You’re braver than we thought. It takes guts to jump off a bridge towards the stunning Cheakamus River, but we’re sure you can handle it. Of course, it definitely helps that there are unbelievable natural views to ease you into it.

Whistler Bungee actually operates year-round, no matter the weather. You could roll up and have a blizzard going down, but as long as there’s no lightning (metal bridge), the show must go on. Gravity waits for no one! And who doesn’t want to catch snowflakes on the tongue at warp speed?

But if you’re getting cold feet– not because of the snow– relax. Whistler Bungee has a perfect safety record! Plus, they’re conveniently located just 20 minutes south of Whistler Village and only an hour drive from West Vancouver. Hit the Sea to Sky Highway and you’re golden.

Whether you jump on your own, tandem, or in a wheelchair, we’re pretty sure you’ll have a good time. Who knows, maybe you’ll even cross paths with Adrenaline Santa™! We hear he comes out to be naughty every once in a while.
