The Lost Lake PassivHaus is the first passive house in Canada. It is located at the main entrance of Lost Lake Park. The building was initially used as accommodation for the Austrian Olympic Committee and Austrian Broadcasting, which broadcasted live to Austrian audiences during the 2010 Winter Olympics.
After the Games, the Austrian Passive House Group donated it to the Municipality of Whistler. The building now serves as a day lodge, office and meeting space for the Whistler Off-road Cycling Association (WORCA) and Whistler Nordics, as well as a cross-country ski and mountain bike rental shop and a café.
