We’ve just returned from a whirlwind weekend in the mountains.
Yes, the mountains! And I have so much to tell you.
We kicked off our summer with a little adventure, a lot of fabulous food, and the very best thing of all, quality time with my family. It was the best of what luxury family travel is supposed to be.
What: A trip to Mont Tremblant.
Where: Tremblant Resort is located in the beautiful Laurentian mountains of Quebec in Canada. It offers the perfect setting for your winter vacations, your summer escapes and everything in between. There are dozens of hotel and condo choices conveniently located in the action-packed pedestrian only village. Worthy of note: It’s also very dog friendly.
When: The area of Tremblant is known for it’s world class skiing, however for this trip, we explored all the area had to offer in summer. The number of activities available is only limited by your imagination and the amount of time you have to explore! Some must try items include:
- Gondola rides up the mountain
- Restaurants galore
- Hiking and biking trails
- Pottery and T-Shirt Creation
- Exploring the Beach and Tennis Club
- Le Petit-Géant Mini-golf
- Luge
- Ziptrek Ecotours
- Summer Concerts and Entertainment
- Dune Buggy Tours
- Golf
- Cruising on Lac Tremblant
- The Casino
Of course one thing you simply must make time for, just wandering the cobblestone streets and doing nothing at all.
Who: A perfect getaway for families young and old, romantic getaways, girls weekends, golf weekends, or even a family reunion.
Why: It’s an escape unlike this family has ever tried. Tremblant offers the opportunity to go at your own pace, explore a charming village on the side of a mountain and for a moment, forget the world. We were able to have an adventure, be adrenalin junkies for a day, make some memories, and end up with an incredible story to tell. A story that goes a little bit like this:
Could you hear me scream?
This video, created by my talented youngest daughter, just begins to scratch the surface of some the amazing activities we were able to explore during our four day stay. More details to come, and so much more of Tremblant to explore. We’re already looking forward to and planning our next escape. Thanks for having us!

This looks like a great place for a Canadian vacation and I bet it amazing in the winter for skiing. I especially like the cobblestone road in your picture because it makes it look really old in a good way.
Jay M says
Awesome video! We definitely have to make it there in the summer months….We have gone up to Mont Tremblant when we are in Ottawa for work, but that usually always end up being in the winter! (Which is also amazing.)
kathy downey says

Deborah Pucci says
It looks like a lovely place to visit.
Lynda Cook says
Loved your video, that zipline is dope, I can’t believe how far it it goes and the racing of the carts looks like so much fun, you sure know how to have a great time!!

It looks amazing. Such a lovely place to visit and I’m glad it’s not too far away from me.
Shirley says
Mont Tremblant looks really lovely! All of the activities sound like so much fun. I would love to explore the cobblestone streets, and the Gondola ride would be beautiful.
DARLENE W says
Have been here skiing a few times but never in the summer time
Shannon says
You now have me wondering why we’ve never thought to take a trip here? Why is it that we never think to travel within Canada? Tremblant looks like so much fun.
Elizabeth Matthiesen says
Sounds like you all enjoyed yourselves, zip lining wouldn’t be something I’d do but I’d love to wander along those beautiful cobbled streets 🙂
Stephanie says
Wandering those cobblestone streets with my girls was kind of magical. The entire village is full of sweet little shops, restaurants and bursting with charm.
kristen visser says
omg what a great place to go to! I have never been but definitely looks like a great place to bring the family. And I would totally do the zip lining. Looks like a blast
Stephanie says
Tremblant is an amazing place to take your family, and I’m thinking a fab couples getaway too! And the Zip-Lining? Incredible! It really was a blast!
Melinda Jana says
wow!!! looking at the video, what a video while zipping down
Stephanie says
The tour company allows you to rent Go-Pros (which you can attach to your wrist) which makes getting that must have shot a little bit easier. I’m so glad my daughter decided to tape our experience, it’s such a n incredible souvenir!
Melinda Jana says
that is super handy, since I don’t think I want to film using my own camera which wouldn’t record such a nice video anyways. Great job to her for filming this amazing experience 🙂
heather says
This place looks amazing. I watched the video and I so so so want to do that zip line that looked so fun. I also love the song and the volume was perfect. Thank you for sharing this one I really enjoyed reading this post.
Stephanie says
I’m thrilled that you love the video! Thanks for watching. The zip line was more fun than I can even put into words, I hope one day you have a chance to try it 🙂
Judy Cowan says
It looks like an amazing place to take a weekend getaway too. Another one to add to my must visit list!
Stephanie says
Oh yes, please do add it to your travel bucket list. There is so much to see and do in Tremblant, it’s a fabulous getaway.
Stephanie LaPlante says
Wow looks absolutely gorgeous there!
Stephanie says
It’s like walking through a story book!
