Traffic Information

With an event the size and scope of The Whistler Half Marathon, minor traffic interruptions are unavoidable.  We thank the community for your patience while we run our event, and hope that you get out and cheer on the athletes.  All consideration for access to homes and businesses have been considered and all traffic management has been designed to be as short as possible, for minimal impact.

As the race course does cover vast amounts of municipal roadway as well as the valley trail system, please be aware that racers can be encountered anywhere along the route between 7:00am and noon on Saturday June 7th.  Be sure to also see our traffic advisories in Pique Newsmagazine, and listen on Mountain FM June 1 - June 7.
