From appropriate clothing to refreshing breaks, shaded trails, and invigorating zip lines, discover our tips for a pleasant and comfortable day under the Tremblant sun.
6 Tips to Staying Cool on a Summer Day in the Mountains
Light and Suitable Clothing
Opt for light, breathable clothing to stay comfortable. Moisture-wicking technical fabrics are ideal for outdoor activities. Don’t forget to protect your head with a hat or cap. If you forget something, our shops in the pedestrian village have everything you need to gear up.
Enjoy the Coolness of the Summit
The summit of Mont Tremblant is often cooler than the base, offering a welcome respite on hot days. You can easily reach it via the panoramic gondola. Another option is to take the gondola up and hike down, a choice that requires less physical effort but allows you to fully enjoy the natural beauty and tree shade. Once at the summit, don’t miss the fascinating birds of prey show, which adds a unique touch to your visit.
Hydration and Refreshing Breaks
Staying hydrated is crucial when the sun is at its peak. Drink plenty of water throughout the day by keeping a reusable bottle with you. For a refreshing break, stop by the Grand Manitou cafeteria at the summit where you’ll find snacks and cold drinks to recharge. Also, note that there is a wide selection of beverages in the pedestrian village, with numerous cafes and restaurants to quench your thirst.
Shaded Hiking Trails
To escape the heat, explore the shaded trails and stay near streams. The forest offers natural coolness, making your hike much more enjoyable. The Sentier 360, for example, circles the summit and immerses you in the peaceful beauty of the woods. From the base of the mountain, you can discover the Les Ruisseaux trail, which passes by waterfalls and, of course, streams!
Thrills and Cool Breezes on the Way Down
The long zip lines of Ziptrek Ecotours are perfect for feeling the wind as you race down the mountain above the trees. Between some sections, you’ll enjoy the soothing coolness of the surrounding forest. This is an educational and exhilarating activity that combines adventure and refreshment.
