WHISTLER'S GOLDEN SEASON– AUTUMN IN THE ALPINE
As summer fades, Whistler unveils its most enchanting chapter: Autumn. Forests glow gold, moody skies drift over mist-draped peaks, and the alpine landscape becomes a stunning stage for creativity, romance and adventure. A calm serenity settles over the village, inviting guests to pause and savour the moment.

At the heart of it all, Fairmont Chateau Whistler presents Celebrate!, a month-long series of festive experiences designed to inspire the senses and awaken the holiday spirit.
