A-Line
THE Whistler trail. Jumps, rock drops, massive berms, flow for days. A trip to Whistler isn't complete without it.
Trail beta
Access via the Fitzsimmons Express lift at Whistler Bike Park base. Park at Day Skier Lot 1-4 off Blackcomb Way, free until afternoon. Warm up on Easy Does It and B-Line first; A-Line is a huge step up from any blue. Mandatory tabletops, berms, drops, and the infamous Moonbooter (big hip-table near the bottom). Speed is mandatory to clear jumps, slow = case city. First two drop-ins are smaller than they look but set the tone: if those humble you, turn around on B-Line. Ride behind someone who knows the trail to get tows into the jumps your first lap.
When to go
Whistler Bike Park's flagship flow trail in the Fitzsimmons Zone, typically open from mid-May through mid-October (2025 opened May 16). Rarely delayed by snow because of its valley-floor elevation, so A-Line is usually rideable from opening day. Bike park passes or day tickets required. Crankworx in August brings the biggest crowds.
Lift access
Lift-served from Fitz zone. Multiple laps are the move. You'll want at least five.
