This picture-perfect resort village in the heart of Laurentians is a must for anyone in the province of Quebec.

Here are the best things to do in Mont-Tremblant, grouped by season.
Mont-Tremblant in Winter
1. Skiing and Snowboarding
The most popular thing to do at Mont-Tremblant is, of course, skiing and snowboarding. With a top elevation of 875 metres and a skiable area of 630 acres, loads of fun await on the slopes. The total number of runs currently stands at 102, with a healthy balance of difficulty levels.
There’s also a kids’ section, on-demand lessons, and rentals. However, there’s no night skiing, so remember the chairlifts close between 3 and 5 pm.
2. Cross-Country Skiing
Cross-country skiing is another fun way to enjoy the winter paradise of Mont-Tremblant. This calmer cousin of downhill skiing is still thrilling in its own right. The resort offers nearly 120 kilometres of trails, ranging between beginner and expert levels. Whatever your skill level, you’re sure to find a path that suits you and on which you can explore the beauty of the outdoors at your own pace. Rentals are available.
3. Ice Skating
An illuminated ice rink is located in Mont-Tremblant Village, right by Saint Bernard Chapel. The rink is free for anyone with proof of accommodation, and free equipment rentals are also available on a first-come, first-serve basis. Open from 1 to 9 pm daily, the schedule can vary depending on the weather.
4. Panoramic Gondola
The Panoramic Gondola is one of the most popular Mont-Tremblant attractions. It’s an excellent way to admire the beauty of Tremblant Mountain and its surroundings. Snow covers the area in winter and turns it into a snowy wonderland. At the top, you can disembark and explore the summit on foot or snowshoes. The gondola is open year-round, but the winter schedule is from November to April.
5. Snow Tubing
I have excellent memories of snow tubing with my little sister and grandmother. This is one of the best Mont-Tremblant activities for families because little ones as young as two can participate (kids aged two and three slide for free with a parent). They have eight different slopes, two and four-hour passes, and an on-site cafeteria for snack time or warming up.
The hills of Aventure Neige are 15 minutes from the resort (so not the same as the ones you ski/snowboard on) and are easily accessible by free public transit.
6. Snowshoeing
Snowshoeing at Mont-Tremblant is a scenic outdoor activity you don’t want to miss. The beautiful trails offer spectacular views of dozens of natural vistas, such as waterfalls and streams. Tremblant is the highest peak in the Laurentians, and the resort has seven different trails. They also have guided tours and a snowshoeing plus fondue dinner package.
Nearby Tremblant is Domaine Saint-Bernard if you’re a snowshoeing fanatic who can’t get enough of one site. Saint-Bernard offers trails ranging from two to 13 kilometres, heated shacks, equipment rentals, and an on-site restaurant.
7. Snowmobiling
Snowmobile tours are a popular activity happening 35 minutes from Mont-Tremblant. In Sainte-Agathe, your guide curates the tour based on your experience level. Tours are roughly two hours each, and drivers must be 18 or older to participate.
8. Ice Climbing
Mont-Tremblant Resort offers an introduction to ice climbing adventure on an ice waterfall with views of the Panoramic Gondola. This onsite activity requires no prior climbing experience.
9. Dogsledding
Multiple dogsledding winter activities with transportation are available through the Tremblant Activity Centre. The guides allow you to drive your own team or enjoy the view as a passenger. Each activity is unique and special. Choose from short one-hour rides to full-day adventures.

Helicopter rides are a thrilling way to take in the beauty of the Mont-Tremblant region. Take your pick from 10, 20, and 30-minute rides.

Located 20 minutes from Tremblant, the Treetop Walk is a unique and exciting way to view the breathtaking Laurentians. The elevated path and giant wooden structure cover nearly three kilometres.

After all this winter fun, wind down in one of the two health and beauty centres in the heart of Mont-Tremblant Pedestrian Village. Amerispa and Moment Spa both offer therapeutic and relaxation massages, manicures, pedicures, and numerous body treatments.

Originally from New Zealand, this activity is the first of its kind in North America. The summer luge is a three-wheel cart with a unique braking and steering system. The Mont-Tremblant version offers a 1.4-kilometre-long track with 24 corners to navigate. The ride lasts a cool seven minutes, and they say one ride is never enough for this all-ages activity.

Lac Tremblant, Rivière Rouge, and Mont-Tremblant National Park are places around the resort where you can enjoy these water-based activities.

22. Club Plage et Tennis
Take a swim or lay in the sun on the sandy beaches of Lac Tremblant. They have a swimming area that certified lifeguards supervise at all times during opening hours. Onsite activities and services include a beach bar, snack bar, nautical activities, and a tennis court.
