GOLF

Who’s your caddy? Whoops, we mean Daddy.

There are some amazing golf courses in Whistler including Whistler Golf Club, Fairmont Chateau Whistler Golf Club, and Nicklaus North Golf Course. So why not thank your dad for putting you on the right course in life by treating him to a round of golf?

And ladies if you want to send dad out for a golf day with the boys, then why not treat yourself? Gather your girlfriends and take a seat on Black’s Pub patio for the day. Every Sunday is Ladies day at Black’s Pub with discounts on food and wine just for you.

ADVENTURE

If your pops has a need for speed then an ATV or RZR tour may be the perfect gift. Canadian Wilderness Adventures is offering 30% OFF all tours for the whole family. Choose between canoeing down the River of Golden Dreams, exploring backcountry trails on an ATV, or taking in the sights on a scenic jeep tour.

There are also so many beautiful hiking trails and biking trails that are accessible from Whistler Village if you want to explore Whistler on your own. Trailforks is a great resource to view all the biking trails throughout the Sea to Sky, and Hike in Whistler gives you the details on the world-class hiking trails that surround us.

Regardless of what activities you may enjoy with your dad on Father’s Day make sure to cheers to a great day with a Gibbons Après Lager – the taste of Whistler – at the end. #Alwaysgoodtimes
