All aboard! The Fairmont Chateau Whistler has teamed up with Canada’s newest luxury train, the Whistler Mountaineer, and put together a great train getaway.

The Sea to Sky Highway is the gateway to Whistler, one of the main venues of the Vancouver 2010 Winter Olympic Games. The 75-mile train ride takes three hours as it wends its way along the rugged, mountainous coastline from North Vancouver to Whistler. Bring your camera!
The Rail Blazing package includes round-trip transportation on the new Whistler Mountaineeer with Coast Classic Service plus accommodation at the Fairmont Chateau Whistler. Cost is $192 CDN per person, per night based on double occupancy.
Or upgrade to the Golden Glacier Rail Blazing package and you’ll relax in style in the custom-built Glacier Dome coach with its panoramic views. When checking into the Fairmont, you’ll be directed to a Fairmont Gold floor at the Chateau. This “boutique hotel within a hotel” has such amenities as private check-in and concierge, deluxe continental breakfast and complimentary hors d’oeuvres in the Fairmont Gold Lounge. Rates begin at $296 CDN per person, per night based on double occupancy.
