About travelling from Mont Tremblant, QC to Montreal, QC
Mont-Tremblant is a standout mountain resort in Québec, drawing visitors in every season thanks to its lively alpine village and broad mix of terrain. The ski area covers four mountain faces and more than 100 trails, with steady views toward the Laurentian Mountains. Its strong snowmaking system keeps conditions reliable throughout the winter.
The pedestrian village adds a charming, almost European character. You can wander between cafés, après spots, restaurants, and boutique shops without ever needing a vehicle. Microbrasserie La Diable serves local beer and generous meals, P’tit Caribou is the place for high-energy après, and La Savoie specializes in fondue and other Alpine dishes. For early-morning stops, Au Grain de Café and La Sandwicherie are familiar staples. Shoppers will find everything from outdoor essentials to handmade Québec products.
When the snow melts, Mont-Tremblant becomes an outdoor playground. Hiking and biking trails wind through the Laurentians, Lac Tremblant turns perfect for water activities, and autumn delivers spectacular colours. Paired with frequent concerts, markets, and festivals, the resort offers plenty to do even outside ski season.
