Map of traffic impacts

 

We are excited to welcome all athletes, spectators, staff and volunteers of the Subaru Ironman Canada back to Whistler again this year! This incredible event challenges even the best athletes. We can’t wait to cheer everyone on! As the Ironman course travels throughout Whistler, directly by the spa on the valley trail, for most of the day on Sunday, July 29 there will be some traffic delays to consider.

For guests of the Scandinave Spa on race day, Sunday July 28, please give yourself additional time to get here if planning to travel by car as there will be significant road delays. For guests who are able, we suggest taking advantage of the amazing trail system surrounding Lost Lake to start your journey to the spa with a bike ride or walk through the forest.
