Superfly Ziplines on Cougar Mountain — Whistler’s Four-Line Dual Zip Experience
Race a friend across four exposed ziplines above Cougar Mountain — a 2.5-hour, small-group experience that pairs safety-first instruction with panoramic views of Whistler’s major peaks. This dual-cable system lets two guests fly side-by-side for an approachable, high-adrenaline taste of the Coast Mountains.
The Experience
Before You Go
Complete the waiver ahead of time
Fill out the online waiver before arrival to speed check-in and get on the first shuttle quickly.
Wear secure closed-toe shoes
Sturdy trainers or light hiking shoes are required for the boardwalks and platform steps; no sandals or loose footwear.
Plan for variable weather
Tours run rain or shine—bring a waterproof layer and warm gloves in shoulder seasons and winter.
Arrive early and be ready to be weighed
Staff will weigh all participants in their tour clothes; arrive 15 minutes early to allow time for gear and briefings.
Local Knowledge
Hidden Gems
- •Boardwalk viewpoint between Line 2 and 3 with an unobstructed view toward Rainbow Mountain
- •Short side-trail near Basecamp that opens to a small wildflower meadow in summer
Wildlife
- •Black-tailed deer
- •Varied songbirds and occasionally a raven or bald eagle overhead
Conservation Note
The operator uses existing trails and platform systems to limit new disturbance; visitors are encouraged to carry out waste and stay on boardwalks to protect understory regeneration.
The slopes around Cougar Mountain sit within traditional Squamish and Lil’wat territories; the ridges have long been travel corridors and seasonal use areas for Indigenous communities.
Photographer's Notes
- • Platform at the first zipline for wide valley shots
