Mont-Tremblant National ParkKid-friendlyBooking Req.NatureActiveScenic
Quebec’s oldest and largest provincial park unfurls across the ancient Laurentian Mountains, a 1,510-square-kilometre tapestry of rounded peaks, six major rivers, and over 400 lakes. The park’s namesake summit, Mont Tremblant (968 m), anchors a landscape sculpted by glaciers into a playground of rare versatility. In summer, the Diable and Rouge rivers draw paddlers through corridors of maple and yellow birch, while the 120-kilometre La Diable trail network invites hikers to waterfalls like the Chute-aux-Rats and panoramic ridges such as the Centenaire. Autumn ignites the hardwoods in a conflagration of crimson and gold, arguably the finest fall-foliage stage in eastern Canada. Winter transforms the park into a Nordic cathedral: 82 km of groomed cross-country ski trails, 30 km of snowshoe paths, and backcountry huts for the intrepid. The park’s eight sectors — each with distinct character — ensure that solitude is always within reach, even on a long weekend.
