Thinking of heading to Mount Tremblant over the Christmas holiday for some skiing. Never been and would like to know if any of you have any suggestions or comments. Been all over the east and west, but just have heard some nice things about this place. Looks pretty nice. Would fly into Montreal and spend a day there and then drive to Mount Tremblant. Just love Montreal......Saint Catherine Street!! haha. Thanks all. |

I spent a New Years up there a few years back. It can get extremely cold on the slopes up there. There are a few nice runs but quite icy at times. Beautiful mountain. Have no idea about offroad trails. Probably about a 3 hour drive from Montreal (5 from here in Kingston). Jason |

Another good suggestion, from memory is a place across the way called Grey Rocks. My family and I went their many years ago, and did some skiing at Tremblant when the weather was good. Grey Rocks is a bit more family oriented, at least it was back then.... Tremblant is a damn cold mountain. Nice, steep skiing... |
