What to Wear
On the mountain: Winter weather at Tremblant can change in the
blink of an eye. Visitors should come prepared for all conditions.
To avoid frostbite when temperatures plummet with the wind chill
factor, it is extremely important to cover any exposed skin. Clothing
rentals are also available for your convenience.
In the Village
Anything goes. Temperatures are much more moderate at the base
of the mountain in the resort Village, but guests should be prepared
for all weather conditions. Our shops, restaurants and bars are
cosy and loaded with après-ski warmth. Good walking shoes
and/or boots with rubber soles are highly recommended for strolling
through the alpine Village.
Early Season Training
Looking to get a little edge on the ski season? Here are a few
tips from our Snow School on how to get in shape before you hit
the slopes.
When in Tremblant
Take a lesson: If your skiing skills are a little rusty or if you’re
a new skier or snowboarder, then do yourself a favour and take snowboard
or ski lessons. Our renowned Snow School offers a wide range of
programs to suit all tastes and needs, ranging from adult racing
to women-only, discovery programs and much more! One-on-one or in
a group, you’ll sharpen your skills and get the most out of
your winter vacations at Tremblant.
Bring the kids: Tremblant is for families. And our Snow School
offers ski and snowboard programs just for children from 1 to 17
years of age - and an awesome Kidz Club too! Our programs are first-rate
and very popular, so make the most of your stay by pre-booking.
Your kids will have loads of fun in a completely safe and secure
environment.
Take a mountain tour: Whether it’s your first or tenth visit
to Tremblant, we highly recommend taking a guided mountain tour.
Info-Ski Tremblant offers FREE 1-hour guided tours so you get to
know the ins and outs of our majestic Laurentian jewel. It’s
a great opportunity to learn where and when to ski, under the watchful
guidance of our experienced hosts. Our Snow School also offers 2-hour
group tours for strong novice to expert skiers.
Know where to ski: Even though there’s no risk of avalanches,
Tremblant is still a big mountain experience. With four challenging
faces to ski, plenty of wooded glades, exciting off-trail skiing,
rocky outcrops and natural half-pipes, it pays to know where you’re
going. Make sure you pick up a trail map before you hit the slopes
and take time to check out our trail conditions at the base of the
mountain and at the summit. Better safe than sorry…or lost.
Time for lunch? Take a break for a bowl of soup or chilli. The
view is simply spectacular from the Grand Manitou restaurant at
the summit of Tremblant. Or perhaps you’re meeting friends
for lunch in one of the many restaurants in our resort. Click here
to check out all our restaurant options.
The early birds get the snow! One of the best ways to start your
day at Tremblant is to take the heated Gondola to the top of the
mountain at 7:15, enjoy a hearty breakfast buffet in the Grand Manitou
and then lay down the first tracks of the day starting at 8am. First
Tracks happens every weekend during the winter holidays and it’s
a must for powder hounds.
