If you're looking for a ski town where you can let loose after hitting the slopes, a B.C. one just came out on top in a new ranking of Canada's best après ski destinations.

This charming little town looks like it's straight out of Europe, with cobblestone streets and a walkable village — and its après-ski scene is next-level.

The ranking, put together by CanadaSportsBetting, analyzed social media data and Google reviews for 50 of Canada's top ski resorts. Whistler, B.C., came out on top with an "après score" of 68.9, earning the title of "Canada’s ultimate après-ski destination."

"With 1,700 social mentions, a 391,500 search volume, and a thriving après culture, it offers an unbeatable mix of world-class skiing and vibrant nightlife," said the press release.

Whistler is already a bucket-list destination, known for its stunning views, epic ski terrain, and proximity to Vancouver. After a day on the slopes, you can unwind at one of the many bars and restaurants in Whistler Village.

The patios are open year-round, and iconic spots like the Longhorn Saloon are perfect for a fun afternoon.

On top of the after-ski fun, Whistler is also just a beautiful destination with endless outdoor activities, luxurious spas and hotels, and a cozy vibe.
