Mont-Tremblant chalet rentals are probably the most popular type of vacation rental in this ski area. These chalets are spacious, and will suit families and groups of friends vacationing together. Close to the ski resort, you'll also find luxurious apartments with scenic mountain views. Here's a look at what to see and do at this legendary destination.
Mountain dining
There are two ways to get to Le Refuge Du Trappeur. The first is to ski black diamond slopes to get there by lunchtime for soup, toasted sandwiches, and hot chocolate. The second option is to join a guided snowshoe adventure at night from there, ending with a cheese fondue surrounded by the mountains' tranquility.
Cabane à Sucre de la Montagne offers the most Canadian of all desserts: maple syrup on a stick rolled up on the snow. This is a delicious treat that will last the walk back to your Mont-Tremblant cottage rentals.
Eat some warming comfort food at La Forge. This bistro bar offers pub food with a modern twist. For example, instead of chicken wings, they offer delicious duck wings. Their poutine is said to be the best in Mont-Tremblant, available with alternate toppings such as pulled chicken.
Family fun in Mont-Tremblant
Every evening in winter, Mont-Tremblant's tubing hill opens for fun for all ages. You can get single or double tubes, or individual size toboggans. The slope is at the perfect angle to get some good speed going without getting dangerous. Get there early to burn off some energy before dinner.
The Aquaclub la Source is a great place to spend some time away from the slopes. You could easily spend a whole day here as the venue includes hot tubs, deep pools, shallow pools, waterslides, rope swings, and pool toys. The wall of the pool area is enclosed by glass so you can watch people skiing outside. This is a great option for those with younger children.
Nightlife options
Bar Café d’Époque is one of the top nightclubs in Mont-Tremblant. This iconic spot was once a popular coffee shop but was converted into a nightclub in recent years. A DJ plays the latest songs there every night into the early hours of the morning, making this the place to be if you want to dance the night away.
A quieter option is Le Lounge, a trendy bar that's popular with the 30-plus crowd. Relax in a comfortable chair and discuss the days' events over your drink of choice. Le Lounge is home to one of the largest collections of whiskeys, scotches, and gins in Canada.
Mont-Tremblant from up high
