Highlights
Join an evening excursion and follow cryptic radio transmissions and the lingering traces of two long-ago hikers to find the scenic trailhead where the real journey begins. This pathway leads toward a place filled with beauty, and proof that the legends of Whistler are true. Moment Factory, a global leader in video, lighting, sounds and special effects, will bring Whistler’s forests to life this summer with a brand-new show. This 1.5 km (summer) / 1km (winter) trail through an old growth forest will take visitors of all ages on an hour-long multimedia night walk in pursuit of hidden wonders. The entire experience takes place outside within a trail network which is partially levelled but not asphalted. The course initially heads up the hillside through a moderate gradient and a few sets of stairs before heading back down - the back half of the course is flatter. Including up and down, there are roughly 275 staircase steps.

4Good experience
Overall it was a fun experience. There was a bit of a hike up a hill and back down with little light at times so watch your step. My only feedback for improvement would be the reservation system, I found it quite confusing. I booked the ticket and chose bus transpiration. The tick was issued and showed bus pick up time and location at the top of the reservation. I happened to call with a question and they told me I had not booked the bus as the ticket said I needed to call to book. I looked at the reservation again and saw bus booked with pickup time at the top and you need to phone to book the bus at the bottom.
5A really nice evening
I really enjoyed this! Had a great time. Went on a chilly October evening and had a great time. I can tell that a lot of love and work was put into this. The sound system is amazing. The hot chocolate is fantastic! Thank you for the fun!
5Magical experience
We gave this experience a go and it was really special. The lighting is very clever. The story although a little confusing is sweet and not too serious. A relaxing thing to do in the evening.
2Frightening hike in dark
Was not prepared for the vigorous nighttime hike with dim lighting - as a result it took me twice a long to complete the course . operator needs to spell this out to me customers PRIOR to booking -
5MAGICAL !
It was so much more then expected. Absolutely beautiful.
5Spectacular forest light show
Absolutely loved this show. The lights & theatrics are spectacular. You must have good footing tho & be able to walk up down some steep timber steps as it’s quite dark & your walking on forest ground. But well worth it

About Whistler
Whistler, in the coastal mountains of British Columbia, is a ski and mountain-bike resort village between two big peaks, Whistler and Blackcomb.
Whistler sits in a valley of the Coast Mountains, about two hours' drive up the Sea to Sky Highway from Vancouver, with a pedestrian village at the base of two mountains, Whistler and Blackcomb. The Peak 2 Peak gondola links the two mountains across a deep valley. The resort hosted the alpine events of the 2010 Winter Olympics, and the resort takes its name from the whistling calls of the marmots on the slopes.
