    Health & Safety

    Strobe Lighting

    Strobe lighting effects are used during this show. Guests that may suffer from epilepsy or are affected by visual light stimulation effects are advised to contact the ranger staff prior to embarking on the walk.

    Mobility 

    This experience takes place outside on a 1km trail that is levelled gravel, and dirt, including stairs and slopes. We do our best remove to snow and grit the trail, but the trail can be prone is slippery sections.

     

    These paths are not recommended for people with reduced mobility.

    What to Bring

    Dress for the Weather

    Vallea Lumina is an outdoors experience that runs rain or shine. Just like our lost hikers, dress for the weather! Bundle up on those colder nights, and bring a rain jacket when it’s wet out.

     

    We recommend:

    • Winter boots + warm socks
    • Warm waterproof jackets
    • Toque or Beanie
    • Gloves or Mittens

     

    Rain ponchos and hand & toe warmers are available for purchase from our Café.

    What to Leave At Home

    No Umbrellas are not permitted on the trail to avoid blocking the view of other guests. On rainy nights, the lost hikers recommend bringing a rain jacket instead.

     

    Strollers are not permitted due to the unpaved nature of the trail, but carriers for the little ones are a great alternative.

     

    Due to the sensitive natural habitat of the Illuminated Salmon, pets are not permitted to join.

  • Unique Experience

    This was such a cool experience which I believe any age can enjoy! Kids, family\'s, couples, singles! Each part of the walk just got better & better - constantly catching myself going wowwww! At the end we roasted smores by the fire, perfect way to end the night.

  • Magical Forest Experience

    What a magical forest experience. The lights, the music, the story - it really was amazing. I wasn\'t exactly sure what to expect and I felt like I was entered another world. At times, I felt like I was in Avatar or walking in Lord of the Rings. The trail winds through the forest and across streams and having the lights bounce off the snow added a lovely textural element. Beautifully done and so glad I went.

  • Magical!

    EVERYTHING. This was one of the most magical things we have ever seen/done and we\'ve been to every single Disney park in the world. Do yourself a favor and don\'t watch any videos of it prior to going so you can just be totally surprised! Very safe and suitable for kids of all ages if you have them. Dress warm, take hand warmers and try to go after there has been a good snow! 😍 Also make sure your phones are charged because you\'re going to want to take a ton of pictures and videos. 10/10 recommend.

  • 5 Stars

    Pictures and videos don\'t do it justice, this is a 3-d audio visual wonderland of amazement, and all for $30 pp I have never seen such a show and bang for your buck. I am very out of shape and tackled it easily, took about 40 minutes at our own leisurely pace. Most affordable adventure in whistler and worth every penny and more, would be a fantastic family activity, and makes a great date night. I cannot recommend this enough or give it enough stars.

  • Emotionally Satisfying

    This had a lot of unexpected amazing experiences. It was so visually and emotionally stimulating. I like that there was a hike to get up and down and we were truly in the middle of nature. A few of the spots I actually watched what was happening several times I loved it so much. Everyone should definitely get a chance to visit here. Thank you so much for whoever designed and physically created this truly magical experience.
