The scenery is splendid, but it&#8217;s extremely hilly. All in all a very challenging bike route &#8211; which is perhaps why so many people want to do it!

The trail stretches from Function Junction to Emerald. From Cheakamus River the trail winds north through Whistler Creekside, the Village, Meadow Park and Nicklaus North, before ending on the shores of the aptly named Green Lake. It offers safe, non-motorized opportunities for cycling, skating, cross-country skiing, walking, running, wheel-chairing or pushing a stroller \u2013 and you can bring your dog along, providing he\u2019s on a leash!<\/p>\n<p>The Whistler Valley Trail is suitable for all ages and abilities. I made this GIF which shows a little girl very bravely attempting the hill that winds past Nicklaus North. There are some hills on the trail, and there is no shame at all in ending up pushing!

He says:<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\">\u201cIt opens Whistler up. The trail allows anyone to see the wetlands and lakes and forests. It gives you different views of the mountains and lets people who aren\u2019t hard-core hikers or bikers really experience Whistler. \u2026 <strong>Once the local mothers discovered their kids could ride to each others\u2019 houses without going on the highway the community was behind it all the way<\/strong>.\u201d<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_17357\"

When we stayed there we loaded up the recycling in our panniers, then cycled along the trail to drop it off at the recycling station at 8001 Nester Road (the Whistler Valley Trail runs right past the way station). You can&#8217;t get much greener than that!<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_17346\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-17346\" style=\"width: 750px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><a href=\"https:\/\/averagejoecyclist.com\/whistler-village-green-lake\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\"><img decoding=\"async\" data-attachment-id=\"17346\" data-permalink=\"https:\/\/averagejoecyclist.com\/whistler-valley-trail\/green-lake-views-750\/\" data-orig-file=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/averagejoecyclist.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/05\/Green-lake-views-750.jpg?fit=750%2C500&amp;ssl=1\" data-orig-size=\"750,500\" data-comments-opened=\"1\" data-image-meta=\"{&quot;aperture&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;credit&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;camera&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;caption&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;created_timestamp&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;copyright&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;focal_length&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;iso&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;shutter_speed&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;title&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;orientation&quot;:&quot;0&quot;}\" data-image-title=\"Green lake views 750\" data-image-description=\"\" data-image-caption=\"&lt;p&gt;you get a superb view of the float planes on Green Lake from the board walk &lt;\/p&gt;\n\" data-medium-file=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/averagejoecyclist.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/05\/Green-lake-views-750.jpg?fit=300%2C200&amp;ssl=1\" data-large-file=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/averagejoecyclist.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/05\/Green-lake-views-750.jpg?fit=750%2C500&amp;ssl=1\" class=\"wp-image-17346 size-full lazyload\" src=\"data:image\/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP\/\/\/yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7\" data-src=\"https:\/\/averagejoecyclist.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/05\/Green-lake-views-750.jpg\" alt=\"The Whistler Valley Trail is the result of inspired thinking by Whistler-based pioneers.

Most people on the trail are friendly, polite and follow the rules. For those who forget, a little ringing of your bicycle bell will usually remind them to move to the correct side of the path. Nearer the village you may occasionally encounter some slightly less polite users.<\/li>\n<li>Leash your dogs, and clean up after them. Waste bags and bear-proof bins are provided. It is bear country, so don&#8217;t let your dogs roam, except in the designated off-leash areas.<\/li>\n<li>Motorized vehicles are prohibited.<\/li>\n<li>Cell phone coverage is good in the area, so take your phone along, in case of problems. The emergency number in the area is 911.<\/li>\n<li>Take a credit card or money, and a bike lock. There are many places along the way where you may want to stop for a snack or a drink.<\/li>\n<li>Pick up a map of the Whistler bike trails from the Information Center in Whistler Village. It&#8217;s freely available on a tear sheet on the desks. It looks a bit overwhelming at first, but it soon starts to make sense as you explore the trails.<\/li>\n<li>Note that there are large maps posted at frequent intervals along the trail. These are usually slightly out of date, as new lanes are constantly being built.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<figure id=\"attachment_17393\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-17393\" style=\"width: 750px\"

In fact, the trail winds its way around the edges of the village. However, it&#8217;s best to pick up a map of the bike trails from the Visitor Information Center on your way in, and then you can figure out the most convenient access point for you. (To find the Information Center, follow the signs for the Whistler village turnoff from Highway 99, then take your first right.) There are also handy signposts all along the way.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_17361\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-17361\" style=\"width: 750px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><a href=\"http:\/\/amzn.to\/2hqcg9Q\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\"><img decoding=\"async\" data-attachment-id=\"17361\" data-permalink=\"https:\/\/averagejoecyclist.com\/whistler-valley-trail\/whister-sign-posts-2\/\" data-orig-file=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/averagejoecyclist.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/05\/Whister-sign-posts-2.jpg?fit=750%2C929&amp;ssl=1\" data-orig-size=\"750,929\" data-comments-opened=\"1\" data-image-meta=\"{&quot;aperture&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;credit&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;camera&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;caption&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;created_timestamp&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;copyright&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;focal_length&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;iso&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;shutter_speed&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;title&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;orientation&quot;:&quot;0&quot;}\" data-image-title=\"Whister sign posts 2\" data-image-description=\"\" data-image-caption=\"&lt;p&gt;There are handy signposts all along the Whistler Trail, to help you find your way.&lt;\/p&gt;\n\" data-medium-file=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/averagejoecyclist.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/05\/Whister-sign-posts-2.jpg?fit=242%2C300&amp;ssl=1\" data-large-file=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/averagejoecyclist.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/05\/Whister-sign-posts-2.jpg?fit=750%2C929&amp;ssl=1\" class=\"wp-image-17361 size-full lazyload\" src=\"data:image\/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP\/\/\/yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7\" data-src=\"https:\/\/averagejoecyclist.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/05\/Whister-sign-posts-2.jpg\" alt=\"There are handy signposts all along the Whistler Trail, to help you find your way.\" width=\"750\" height=\"929\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-17361\" class=\"wp-caption-text\"><noscript><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" decoding=\"async\" data-attachment-id=\"17361\" data-permalink=\"https:\/\/averagejoecyclist.com\/whistler-valley-trail\/whister-sign-posts-2\/\" data-orig-file=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/averagejoecyclist.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/05\/Whister-sign-posts-2.jpg?fit=750%2C929&amp;ssl=1\" data-orig-size=\"750,929\" data-comments-opened=\"1\" data-image-meta=\"{&quot;aperture&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;credit&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;camera&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;caption&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;created_timestamp&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;copyright&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;focal_length&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;iso&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;shutter_speed&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;title&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;orientation&quot;:&quot;0&quot;}\" data-image-title=\"Whister sign posts 2\" data-image-description=\"\" data-image-caption=\"&lt;p&gt;There are handy signposts all along the Whistler Trail, to help you find your way.&lt;\/p&gt;\n\" data-medium-file=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/averagejoecyclist.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/05\/Whister-sign-posts-2.jpg?fit=242%2C300&amp;ssl=1\" data-large-file=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/averagejoecyclist.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/05\/Whister-sign-posts-2.jpg?fit=750%2C929&amp;ssl=1\" class=\"wp-image-17361 size-full lazyload\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/averagejoecyclist.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/05\/Whister-sign-posts-2.jpg?resize=750%2C929&#038;ssl=1\" alt=\"There are handy signposts all along the Whistler Trail, to help you find your way.\" width=\"750\" height=\"929\" srcset=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/averagejoecyclist.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/05\/Whister-sign-posts-2.jpg?w=750&amp;ssl=1 750w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/averagejoecyclist.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/05\/Whister-sign-posts-2.jpg?resize=242%2C300&amp;ssl=1 242w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/averagejoecyclist.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/05\/Whister-sign-posts-2.jpg?resize=121%2C150&amp;ssl=1 121w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/averagejoecyclist.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/05\/Whister-sign-posts-2.jpg?resize=250%2C310&amp;ssl=1 250w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/averagejoecyclist.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/05\/Whister-sign-posts-2.jpg?resize=320%2C396&amp;ssl=1 320w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 750px) 100vw, 750px\" \/><\/noscript><\/a> There are handy signposts all along the Whistler Trail, to help you find your way.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>If you are staying in the village itself, the trail exits the village from three different places, so it&#8217;s hard to miss.
