Perched over a mile above sea level in the British Columbia Coastal Mountain at the top of the whistler gondola resides one of the must do’s is the Roundhouse Lodge Whistler. The name can be deceiving as the Roundhouse Lodge Whistler is over 40,000 sq feet.

Getting the 400 guests up the mountain to Roundhouse Lodge Whistler will not be a problem however. With gondolas leaving the station every 30 seconds, each carrying 10 people, it should only take 40 gondola’s or about 20 minutes worth on continuous gondola’s. Once the guests are swept away and climb the breath taking mountain they will arrive at the Roundhouse Lodge Whistler approximately 25 minutes later. To help you plan, leave about 1 hour from when the first guests arrive to when the last ones exit the gondola a top Roundhouse Lodge Whistler. The Roundhouse Lodge Whistler is also “kid friendly” as they too can enjoy the stunning views seen both in the gondola and also atop Roundhouse Lodge Whistler. During summer months the gondola rides offers some of the most breath taking views of the British Columbia Coastal Mountains and surrounding glaciers. The very accommodating Roundhouse Lodge Whistler recognizes the importance of children being entertained also, and can arrange for a special kid’s sundae bar or even children entertainment.

The design of the newly renovated Roundhouse Lodge Whistler
The Roundhouse Lodge Whistler has not always been as large (over 40,000 sq feet) as it currently is. There was a recent addition of over 33,000 sq feet to Roundhouse Lodge Whistler was an engineering feat in itself. Being atop such a vast mountain and a 25 minute gondola ride from the nearest road posed a serious challenge for engineers and developers alike. All supplies and materials had to arrive via gondola if possible otherwise by helicopter. The challenge of the Roundhouse Lodge Whistler addition was to develop the building to accommodate the transfer of all food and supplies from the gondola and also export all waste via gondola. Essentially everything and everyone coming in or out of the Roundhouse Lodge Whistler had to be transported via the gondola which is a 25 minute ride. The development of the kitchen was of utmost importance as it services various finishing spots throughout and also five satellite restaurants located throughout the Roundhouse Lodge Whistler facility. The construction was not only difficult but equally hard was trying to integrate a seamless design that allowed for a smooth transaction of people entering and exiting the gondolas at the same time food and waste is being transported so the guests and visitors are not able to see this going on.

When staying in Whistler or just visiting the area, the Roundhouse Lodge Whistler is well worth the 25 minute gondola ride!
