Autumn colours on the hills of Mont-Tremblant

A fall getaway in Mont-Tremblant pairs peak foliage (mid-September through mid-October) with hiking in Mont-Tremblant National Park, the village gondola, the Tonga Lumina night walk, cycling on the P'tit Train du Nord trail and Laurentian spa time. Reserver.ca manages 80+ CITQ-registered chalets in Tremblant, Lac-Supérieur and Saint-Sauveur — ideal for a foliage long weekend 90 minutes from Montreal.

Version française · Fall 2026 guide — confirm attraction hours and pricing before you travel.

1. Chase the foliage (without the stress)

Mont-Tremblant fall foliage is worth the drive: Lac Tremblant, Highway 117 lookouts and Mont-Tremblant National Park viewpoints. Leave early on weekends to beat 117 traffic. A lake-view chalet skips village queues — browse chalet listings filtered to Tremblant.

2. Panoramic gondola

The village gondola delivers a 360° view over coloured Laurentian ridges. Pack a windbreaker — it is cooler at elevation. Pair it with coffee on the village square.

3. Hiking and the national park

Mont-Tremblant National Park loops run from one to four hours (La Corniche, Grand Brûlé). Waterproof boots and a SEPAQ map are worth it. For an easier outing, the Lac Monroe trail suits families.

4. Tonga Lumina (evening)

Moment Factory's night walk draws October visitors. Book tickets online and plan roughly 90 minutes on foot. Dress warm — the route is in the forest.

5. P'tit Train du Nord in autumn

Before the bike season closes (late November), the Saint-Sauveur → Mont-Tremblant segment glows gold. Map and distances in our P'tit Train du Nord guide.

6. Spa recovery after hiking

Finish with a nordic bath — our Laurentians spa guide lists centres within 20 minutes of the village. Great for multi-generational trips.

Where to stay

For a fall getaway Tremblant, pick a chalet with a fireplace, private hot tub or lake access — less driving, more trail time. Every Reserver.ca home displays a valid CITQ number.
