Mont Tremblant!

Last week was March Break up here in Ontario and a group of us took off for a couple days to Mont Tremblant Quebec.

I had never been here before and it is very cool! Kind of reminds me of Disney with the buildings made to look old and cobble streets - but neat too with outdoor patios, outdoor firepits and a huge skihill and the village at the base!


The weather was so nice for March in these northern parts! Sun shining and finally being outside and not being cold. wonderful.
This is the hotel we stayed at and some room pics.




The first night we had food in the convenient kitchen and then just out for a couple drinks.

The next morning we got up and went for breakfast at the Fairmont. SO GOOD. Huge buffet - lasted me most of the day and the hotel is so beautiful.


The buffet - everything from cheese, pastries, cereals, breads, fruit, omelettes made to order, waffles, as well as eggs, bacon, ham, sausage, and french toast with original Quebec maple syrup! And to finish off - chocolate croissants and maple baked crepes.

We took a tour of the hotel while we were there and I took some pics. A nice place to stay. This is the outdoor hottub and view of the village.





Then we went on a tour of the town.


Took a free gondala ride up the hill...



The afternoon was so bright and sunny - tons of people skiing. No skiing for me - never have tried it and to think this is the bottom THIRD of the hill - uh dont think so. :)

That night was St Patricks Day so a night out! Had a blast. Of course being March break - no shortage of people.

Notice the coolers on this balcony? This was across from our hotel.

And a left over beer glass!! omgosh - there were 3-4 people each having a hose. I can't imagine. especially since I don't like beer!

Late night and left in the morning at 1030 for the drive home.

Good times.

  2. Wow !!! I was there last weekend ! But I didn't stay at fancy accomodations like you since my sister lives about 20 minutes from the hill in La Conception. ;)
    Fun little place, my Mont Tremblant, isn't it ? I call it mine since I have a little cottage on a little lake called Lac Bibitte about 15 minutes from the resort area. We don't really do the tourist thing much in the summer as we love the cottage life but in winter or off season, it is fun to enjoy the mountain too. Glad you enjoyed your Quebec adventure !
