Get to know the place
Mont-Tremblant lies in the Laurentians, a region of hills, forests and lakes north of Montreal. Mount Tremblant, at about 875 meters, is one of the highest points of the range and gives its name to the town, which includes the old village, the Saint-Jovite center and the ski resort.
The resort, on the mountain’s south slope and on the shore of Lake Tremblant, has a pedestrian village with colorful steep-roofed houses, sloping streets, shops and restaurants. A panoramic gondola climbs to the summit. In winter, ski runs descend the mountain’s four faces; in summer, the same slopes offer hiking, mountain biking and a mountain-coaster course.
About 25 km away is Mont-Tremblant National Park, Quebec’s oldest, with hundreds of lakes, rivers and waterfalls such as Chute du Diable. The old railway that once connected the region to Montreal became the P'tit Train du Nord, a cycling trail that passes the village.
In autumn, the maples of the Laurentians change color, and Mont-Tremblant is one of Quebec’s most popular places to see the foliage.

The local experience
A ski and mountain resort on the south slope of Mount Tremblant, with a pedestrian village of colorful houses, a panoramic gondola to the summit and runs on the mountain’s four faces.
Quebec’s oldest national park, with hundreds of lakes, rivers and waterfalls in the Laurentians, trails, canoeing, lake beaches and colorful autumn foliage.
A cycling route of about 230 km along the bed of an old railway that linked Montreal to the Laurentians, with restored stations, lakes and rivers along the way.
Before you go
A little planning leaves more time to enjoy the journey.
Winter, generally from December to April, is the ski season, with snow and very cold temperatures. Summer, from June to August, offers lakes, trails and village festivals. Fall colors usually appear from late September to mid-October.
The seasons shown are the most usual ones; nature doesn't always follow the calendar.
Two or three days: one for the resort village and the gondola, one for the national park and, in winter, as many ski days as you want.
The resort’s pedestrian village concentrates lodging at the foot of the slopes, within walking distance of the gondola. The old village, on the shore of Lake Mercier, and the Saint-Jovite center offer quieter options a few kilometers away, with buses to the resort.
Take your trash with you, follow the signs and support local businesses. In natural areas, follow the visiting guidelines.
Get your questions answered
Two or three days for the village, the gondola and the national park. For skiing, as many days as you want during the season.
By car, about 130 km via Autoroute 15, roughly one and a half hours. There are buses and transfers from Montreal and the airport.
Generally from December to April, depending on snow. Check the piste opening dates for the year.
Ride the gondola to the summit, hike the trails, swim and paddle in the lakes and visit Mont-Tremblant National Park.
It helps, especially for the national park. Local buses link the center, the old village and the resort.
The same as Montreal: UTC−5, and UTC−4 from March to November.
