Mont Tremblant Resort is a large year round resort about one and a half hours north of Montreal. It is best known as a ski destination, but also features a lake suitable for swimming, and a golf course in the summer months. The name of the mountain, Mont Tremblant, means "trembling mountain" in French. The summit is at an elevation of 875 m (3,150 feet), which makes it the tallest peak in the Laurentians.

History

The first chairlift was installed at Mont Tremblant in 1939. Mont-Tremblant Lodge was opened in the same year on the site it still stands today, in the pedestrian village though it was moved to fit the new expansion by Intrawest.
In its early years, Lowell Thomas, the American radio broadcaster, was an avid skier who helped popularize the resort. Thomas would broadcast many editions of his radio show from Mont-Tremblant. The resort has a ski lift and trails named after him and other early devotees.
Peter Ryan, son of Joe and Mary, developed into an accomplished downhill skier but citizenship issues precluded his quest for inclusion on the Canadian Olympic Ski team. He turned his competitive fires to motorsports where he excelled. His greatest victory was the 1961 Canadian Grand Prix. Peter Ryan was inducted into the Canadian Motorsport Hall of Fame in 1993.
The resort operated independently until 1991 when it was purchased by Intrawest.
Intrawest immediately began to build the pedestrian village, and new ski lifts including the gondola. Other changes included re-building the Grand Manitou summit lodge.

Pedestrian Village

The pedestrian village developed by Intrawest has made Tremblant unique amongst ski resorts in Eastern Canada, due to its pedestrian-only layout, exquisite shopping, nightlife, après-ski scene and slope side accommodations. A well known accommodation is Star Condo Villa which is located directly in the pedestrian village of Mont Tremblant.
A visitor staying in the village can feasibly leave their car parked for the duration of their stay.
There is an open gondola-type lift called The Cabriolet which connects the upper and lower parts of the pedestrian village. From the top of this lift the main gondola is available to take skiers to the summit of the mountain.
It is important to note that the pedestrian village within the resort and the original municipal village of Mont-Tremblant, Quebec are two completely separate entities. The resort village is often referred to as "Mont Tremblant", which can lead to confusion.
