Mont Tremblant is also known as the Beast of the East or – as the Aboriginal peoples called it – the Trembling Mountain.

Looking for the best skiing in eastern North America? Look no further than Mont Tremblant - winner of the prestigious Best Ski Resort In Eastern North American Award from Ski Magazine for 12 consecutive years.

The resort of Tremblant sits on the shores of Lake Tremblant, just outside the Village of Mont Tremblant in the Quebec Laurentians. The mountain, with the pedestrian village at its base, and condominiums and homes dotting the hillside, provides an impressive sight for visitors.

Tremblant offers an excellent variety of slopes to suit beginners to expert. The gondola and high-speed lifts ensure that skiers spend more time on the snow. The family atmosphere and general “ joie de vivre” are unbeatable. From concerts to street clowns to fireworks, Tremblant offers the complete vacation experience.

Additionally, Tremblant has an excellent ski school. The Kids Day Care program allows adults to try out their new skis while children (beginning at 3 years) take their first lessons.

Tremblant’s accommodation is second to none – studios to magnificent 7-bedroom homes. Take your pick, and all at prices that are surprisingly affordable.

Choose from a wide variety of restaurants, all known for their unique French Canadian or international cuisine. Dining in some of the local restaurants is a must during your visit – style and presentation are excellent, and casual attire is the order of the day.

Winter activities are not limited to the slopes. Try dog sledding, ice climbing, winter horseback riding, snowshoeing, snowmobiling, or just go to one of the excellent spas for a day of relaxation.

Located just 90 minutes from Montreal International airport, getting to Tremblant is a breeze. Tremblant now also has its own airport – Rivière Rouge – with convenient flights operating from major centers such as Toronto and New York.

There is a sense of élan about the French, oui? And at Tremblant, you will discover all the flavors of Europe right here in Eastern Canada.
