Brief History

The first settlement found in Whistler are the Squamish culture and the Lil'wat tribes traded with the settlements in the region. After the arrival of the British in Whistler, the tribes started to move away until they slowly diminished. Despite that, the Squamish culture is still present in the city through cultural shows and exhibits. The first Europeans arrived in Whistler around the 1860s and named the region “London Mountain”. That name was changed to Whistler, which was taken from the ground squirrels call.
