Canadian vacation ski resort - Mont-Tremblant in Quebec

Tremblant, also known as "The Green Mountain Village" by locals, is located about 100 kilometers from Montreal in Quebec, Canada. It is a famous destination for maple leaf viewing and skiing vacations in Canada. As Quebec is a French-speaking area, Tremblant's meaning in French is "trembling mountain range", and it is also known as the "Banff of the East". During Canada's peak travel season from June to October, there are relatively fewer people at other times. However, if you choose to stay for a few nights in the fall or winter at the Banff Mountain Resort, you must book your hotel early because this is the peak season for Banff Mountain. In October, the mountains are covered in red and yellow maple leaves, creating a colorful and magical world. The vibrant vegetation is truly breathtaking. Here, another famous activity is skiing. Mont Tremblant is recognized as one of the best ski resorts on the east coast of North America, with a peak of 875 meters, a maximum drop of 700 meters, a longest ski trail of 6 kilometers, a maximum slope of 42 degrees, and 96 ski runs of varying difficulty levels, from easy to extremely difficult. If you are a skiing enthusiast, you must experience it during Canada's winter season, as it is said that the snow is usually better around March. During the season for viewing maple leaves, come to Mount Tamborine and be sure to go to the top of the mountain. There is an entertainment project here where you can take a cable car to enjoy the scenery, which is worth experiencing, especially if you are short on time during a group tour. Taking the cable car for sightseeing is easy and provides a good visual effect. However, during peak season, the queues may be longer. When viewing maple leaves, it is important to note that the best time to see the red leaves is during the two weeks before and after mid-October, but this also depends greatly on the weather. Therefore, if you go with the intention of seeing the leaves, you must keep an open mind and go with the flow, as things don't always go as planned. Unless you live in Quebec, Canada, of course. In October, Canada enters the rainy season, so be prepared with rain gear at all times; At the resort, there are two ways to go up the mountain. The first is to take the cable car, which takes 2 minutes to reach halfway up the mountain. This cable car is free, but if you want to go all the way to the top of the mountain, you need to transfer to a paid cable car, which is the one I mentioned earlier that allows you to enjoy the scenery from high up in the air. The second way is to walk. The walking trail looks like the picture above, with small shops, restaurants, and cafes all along the way. This is also the only commercial area. When you reach halfway up the mountain, you can get off the cable car for free if you don't want to shop around. It takes about 15 minutes to walk if you just want to enjoy the scenery. I usually walk down the mountain when I get off the cable car. Although the first section of the cable car is short and free, you can overlook the town from top to bottom, which is very beautiful. Taking photos on the cable car is also very nice.
