Donor Story: ZipTrek EcoTours

Thank you to ZipTrek EcoTours Whistler, who generously donated over $3000 to AWARE in November 2025. ZipTrek are regular donors to AWARE as they donate 10% of their revenue from merchandise and GoPro rental sales each quarter to local organisations. Members of the AWARE Team took a quick trip to the zipline course to meet Big “Doug”, a 600+ year old Douglas Fir to celebrate.

Ziptrek operates as an award-winning adventure ecotourism business renowned for delivering awareness and appreciation of the natural environment along with a healthy dose of ziplining adventure. The team facilitate learning about sustainability by balancing the environmental conservation with the economic and social benefits of tourism.

At AWARE we are so grateful for the support as donations like these allow us to continue to deliver programs and education opportunities that promote sustainable practices, foster engagement and deliver bold, evidence based solutions to environmental challenges in Whistler.
