Independence is an important part of aging well. MAC advocates for better and increased transportation options in our community and region. At this time, Whistler has no “Handy Dart” or volunteer driver program to assist seniors with transport to medical appointments.
MAC also provides resources, information and support to facilitate transport for people over 55 including mobility and transport aids.
Whistler has an extensive paved, two-lane trail network woven throughout the community that is accessible for walking, bike riding, wheelchairs and strollers.
The Valley Trail in Whistler serves as a scenic pathway linking the resort’s diverse neighborhoods, stretching from Function Junction in the south to Emerald in the north. Along its route, it traverses through key areas such as the Village, Upper Village, and Creekside, while also winding through various residential areas, providing a picturesque and accessible route for both locals and visitors to explore the beauty of Whistler.
Comprehensive Guide for Transportation in Whistler including parking
The Access Whistler Map was created to show users the most accessible entrances into the Village Stroll and assist users to locate ramps up to the concourse levels, entrances to shops, restaurants and hotels.
The Access Whistler Map works in conjunction with ramp signs, facilitating the accessible movement of people through the Village to access ramps, elevators, accessible washrooms, the mountains and into the trail network system. It was developed with the premise of providing useful information to empower the best decision-making for people of all abilities.
There are 9 municipal electric vehicle (EV) charging locations that include a total of 52 municipal chargers in Whistler.
The Pedal Wheelchair was purchased by MAC to benefit Whistler residents with impaired mobility and poor balance from a number of conditions such as Parkinson’s disease, multiple sclerosis, strokes, or those rehabilitating from injuries or surgery.
The pedal wheelchair will be stored at MPSC and may be borrowed free of charge for periods of up to 3 hours, by seniors and younger adults, in accordance with procedures developed by MAC and MPSC.
