First, the period of warming the body, in which the surface blood vessels dilate and carry more blood to the skin’s surface.

The second stage consists of closing the pores of the skin through a beneficial rinse in cold water via a Nordic waterfall, a cold shower or bath. The final stage is designed to allow the cardiovascular system to regulate itself through a period of relaxation in the privacy of the relaxation areas. Each sequence, hot–cold–relaxation, takes about 25 to 30 minutes and should be repeated 3 to 4 times for maximum results. The whole experience normally takes about two to three hours. It is important to remain hydrated throughout the process so that most of the toxins are eliminated and optimal well-being is reached through this outdoor relaxation experience, in harmony with nature.

Fishing
Imagine you are on a family vacation or business convention. You sneak away in the
afternoon to fish the evening on a beautiful trout stream. Or perhaps it's a daylong float
down a rushing Steelhead river or a 4x4 adventure to a backcountry trout lake.
Sounds too good to be true? Of course not. Whistler offers a quality fly-fishing experience
with all the amenities of a world class resort to come home to at the end of the day. A guided
fly-fishing trip in Whistler is a great overall outdoor experience. You will be fishing in the
coastal rainforest, some of the most rugged terrain in the world. We often encounter
wildlife: black bears, deer, eagles and even the occasional moose.
The strength of the area as a fly-fishing destination lies in the variety and diversity of the
fishing opportunities that we are able to offer. We angle in lakes and rivers ranging in size
from the tiny to the very large. We are blessed with diversity in our species of fish as well.
We have Steelhead, Dolly Varden, all five species of Pacific Salmon, Rainbow, Kamloops,
Cutthroat, Bull and Eastern Brook trout. Whistler is also a great choice for a family 'fishing'
vacation. The other members of your group will really enjoy the activities Whistler area has
to offer: 5 world class golf courses, beaches, swimming, shopping, horseback riding, ATV
tours, climbing, water-skiing, mountain biking, kayaking, rafting, hiking, tennis, summer
skiing and boarding.
We take all of the hassle out of a fishing trip. All you need to do is show up, and we provide
you with all the necessary equipment including waders, quality fly tackle, and of course fly.
We encourage you to bring your own equipment if you prefer. Your guide will be glad to
provide anything that you don't have. We recommend that you bring along rainwear, an
extra sweater, sunglasses, and a camera.
In order to best preserve the resource the tour operates on a strict catch and release policy.

The educational component provides a unique insight into the surrounding environment on both a local and global scale.
Meanwhile, the ziplines provide an adrenaline rush like no other!
