Ride the best areas of Whistler

Acknowledge, respect, share

At ANANDA Riders, we respectfully acknowledge that our work takes place on the traditional, ancestral, and unceded territories of the Squamish Nation (Skwxwú7mesh Úxwumixw) and Lil’wat Nation (Lil'wat7úl).

We honor the rich cultural heritage and the enduring connection that these Nations have with their lands and waters. We are committed to fostering respectful and meaningful relationships with the Indigenous communities.

We express our gratitude for the opportunity to operate in this beautiful region and recognize our responsibility to support sustainable and inclusive practices.

Live Whistler Your Way

This is your gateway to an authentic Whistler experience.

We believe that Whistler is more than just a destination; it's a way of life.

You have the freedom to explore and enjoy Whistler on your terms.

Whether you seek the thrill of the slopes, the tranquillity of the mountains, or the vibrant local culture, we're here to make it happen your way.

Discover Whistler like a local, savour every moment, and let us be your guide to crafting unforgettable memories in this mountain paradise.

What is ANANDA?

ANANDA means 'Extreme Joy' in Sanskrit
(in Hinduism, Buddhism, and Jainism):
Extreme happiness, one of the highest states of being.

We believe there's a huge community of outdoor enthusiasts (the Joy Riders, therefore ANANDA Riders) who don't feel they belong to the classic archetype of weekend warriors, 'zoo visitors'.

We foster cultural exchange and diversity by connecting travellers to authentic local life in the mountains.

Ask anything!

We are on a mission

We are dedicated to changing the way Riding is perceived.

We want to show that there is a better way, the way that many of us already take, to enjoy the mountain in a fulfilling and safe way.

It doesn't matter if you like to have a chill day and enjoy a smooth run and a coffee at the peak cafeteria, or get the first tracks in the morning and hit the park 7 hours non-stop.

If you enjoy what you're doing and are aware of your fortune, you are already one of us.

You just need to be a nice human.

We are the good guys of riding, we are the ANANDA riders.

We had a blast!

ll I can say is we had a blast. Nacho is honestly from the second you meet him such a warm and welcoming person.

Whistler and the entire area are truly some of the most breathtaking places. If you get the opportunity to hang out with Nacho and let him show you around, count yourself lucky.

Nacho reached out to me after I had posted on a local Facebook page where I was hoping to find someone local to show me around the hill.

I’m from a ski town, so I know the only way to get to know a place is through the locals
