The Overview
Michael Fulton
Melbourne-based skier and snowboarder with 50+ resorts across 5 continents. Specialises in Australian resorts and international resort comparisons.
Mont Tremblant's summit reaches 875 metres, dropping 645 vertical metres to a base at 230 metres across 102 runs spread over roughly 305 hectares in the Laurentians, Quebec. Terrain splits 37 per cent advanced, 30 per cent intermediate, 19 per cent beginner and 14 per cent expert, with average annual snowfall of roughly 3.5 metres. The resort carries Ikon Pass affiliation. Fourteen lifts, including seven quad chairs and three gondolas, serve the mountain alongside one triple chair and three surface lifts.
Mont Tremblant holds a distinguished place as Eastern Canada's leading ski resort, built around a purpose-designed pedestrian village widely regarded as one of the most successful mountain-village developments in North America. Its considerable scale for the Laurentians, combined with a genuinely varied terrain mix, has built Tremblant's reputation as Quebec's premier four-season destination.
Jo Ryan opened Mont Tremblant Lodge in February 1939, developing a resort that included a summer beach and tennis club alongside 16,500 acres of mountain terrain leased from the Quebec provincial government. Mary Ryan continued operating the resort until selling it to a group of Montreal businessmen in 1966, and ownership changed hands several times over the following fifteen years.
Intrawest acquired Mont Tremblant for an estimated 22 million Canadian dollars in 1991, its first resort purchase after Blackcomb, and invested 48 million Canadian dollars between 1991 and 1995, lifting daily capacity from 8,500 to 14,500 skiers. The company's purpose-built pedestrian village, designed by Eldon Beck, the same architect behind Vail and the original Whistler Village, remains central to the resort's identity. Adult daily tickets run from 149 to 179 Canadian dollars.

The Terrain
102 runs across 753 acres skiable
Mont Tremblant is the largest area in this batch, with 102 runs over roughly 305 hectares and a vertical of 645 metres, from 230 to 875 metres. Grading is 19% beginner, 30% intermediate, 37% advanced and 14% expert, so more than half the terrain is steep. Seven quad chairs, a triple, three gondolas and three surface lifts connect four distinct sides of the mountain: the South Side, North Side, Soleil and the Edge. It is a lower-vertical mountain by global standards, yet the scale and variety stand out in eastern Canada, and it carries the Ikon Pass.
The Edge and upper North Side hold the harder lines, with Dynamite often described as the steepest run on the hill and Expo a firm test when the moguls build up. The Edge also offers natural terrain and glades for skiers who want something less groomed. Soleil has sunnier, flowing blues with wooded surrounds, and the South Side is the quick option from the pedestrian village. Cold snaps can leave the surface hard and fast, so keep your edges tuned. Tremblant suits strong intermediates and advanced skiers wanting variety, plus families who want the village on the doorstep.

When to visit Mont Tremblant
The 2025-26 season at Mont Tremblant ran from 27 November 2025 to 12 April 2026, a roughly nineteen-week season supported by average annual snowfall of around 3.5 metres. Season dates can shift depending on early and late-season weather in the Laurentians.
Midwinter, from December through February, typically brings the most consistent conditions to Tremblant's varied, advanced-weighted terrain. As an Ikon Pass resort, Tremblant draws substantial visitation from pass holders alongside destination travellers seeking the resort's genuinely developed pedestrian village.
Tremblant's purpose-built village continues to draw considerable visitation for its dining, shopping and nightlife alongside the skiing itself. School holiday periods bring substantial family visitation given the resort's varied terrain and considerable four-season amenities.
Specific event programming beyond standard operations is not confirmed in available resort information. Since Intrawest's 1991 acquisition, Tremblant has continued building on more than eight decades of history since Jo Ryan's 1939 founding. The resort's status as Eastern Canada's leading ski destination remains central to its enduring reputation.

Getting there
Getting to Mont Tremblant, and where to stay
Mont Tremblant sits in the Laurentians, Quebec, with a base elevation of 230 metres and a summit at 875 metres across a 645-metre vertical drop over roughly 305 hectares. This setting places the resort within a comparatively short drive of Montreal, among the more accessible major resorts in Eastern Canada.
The purpose-built pedestrian village at Tremblant's base offers extensive lodging, dining, shopping and nightlife directly at the mountain, while the nearby town of Saint-Jovite provides additional services.
Route 117 and Autoroute 15 provide direct access to the resort from Montreal. Winter driving conditions on these routes can include snow and ice, though the well-travelled roads are regularly maintained given the resort's status as a major Quebec destination.
Montreal-Trudeau International Airport, roughly a two-hour drive away, is the primary gateway for visitors flying into the region, with Tremblant's considerable international profile supporting substantial visitation from across Canada, the United States and further afield.

Utah Snow Storm Builds Early-Season Base Ahead of November Openings

Halloween weekend brings a wet, windy storm to the Sierra Nevada.

Kitzbüheler Horn Summit Cable Car to Be Replaced After 70 Years
A Tyrolean summit lift that has been carrying guests up the Kitzbüheler Horn since 1955 is on borrowed time. Its licence runs to 2045, but a new inspection rule has made refurbishment uneconomic, so Bergbahn AG Kitzbühel will spend around €15 million on a replacement on the same line. It should hold roughly 100 people and keep running in winds that would stop today’s lift. Building starts in autumn 2027, which makes this winter and next summer the last chances to ride the old one.
