Springtime is a time of renewal in nature, but it’s also a great time to experience your own renewal! If you need a break from your everyday routine, Mont-Tremblant in the spring is the ideal destination to enjoy a variety of spring events and activities that will refresh your spirit. Check out our picks for the top activities and events in Mont-Tremblant for spring.
Go Hiking!
As soon as the snow melts, it is time to pack your backpack, hit the trails, and get out into nature. Although many travelers come to Mont-Tremblant to go skiing, snowboarding, and snowshoeing, springtime brings fresh rain, bright green colors, and warmer weather, perfect for lacing up your boots and hiking on the rocky trails. But where should you go? Mont-Tremblant is no stranger to miles and miles of pristine trails that take you to the top of the tallest peaks or bring you to secret waterfalls. Finding the perfect one that matches your group’s fitness and skill level can be challenging.
We recommend starting with Nez de L’Indien if you and your group are of moderate fitness level and would enjoy a few hours of hiking through the woods. This 8.4-kilometer trail can be done quite quickly in a trail run or take up to four hours if you go at a meandering and easy pace. Everyone who has done this trail, locals and tourists alike, loves the shaded forest, undulating terrain, incredible viewpoints of the Pic Johanssen, and nature along the way.
Mont Nixon is another great choice for those who want to spend a little longer out in the wilderness. If you are looking for a lung-busting hike, try Mont Nixon! This 8-kilometer path has 450 meters of elevation gain, so you can start to feel your quads and calves burning on this hike. This hike features incredible views of Lac Superieur and Little Nixon Peak along the way.
Finally, suppose you would rather just do an easy walk that doesn’t take too long, La Villageoise Loop is the ideal choice for those with older adults or young children. This 6.6-kilometer loop takes no longer than two hours if you are going at an easy pace along this flat and fast path.
Easter Celebrations
There is no better place to ring in the Easter holiday than Mont-Tremblant. We love coming here and celebrating with your kids, family members, or best friends. Head to the Pedestrian Village on March 31st to meet the Easter bunny, find candy, chat with locals, meet other tourists, and play fun games and play fun games that will bond you and your family members. Plus, there is tons of chocolate for you to eat!
Après Ski Tremblant
After you head out on the slopes for a hard run, or the snow has melted and you have been out hiking all day, it might be time for a few drinks. Enjoy some fun après ski action at Place Saint Bernard between March 16th and April 14th with good vibes, live music, and tasty food vendors.
Caribou Cup
Suppose you are a competitive person who thrives off pushing yourself to the limit. In that case, we recommend attending the Caribou Cup on April 6th at 9am. Bring your skis, snowboard, and snowshoes, and set off on the snow-covered path before the powder melts to see if you can cross the pond at the bottom. This is a popular event that brings in people from all over the world.
Enjoy a Morning Coffee
As you slowly wake up in the morning, it can be tempting to stay at home in your luxurious house. But, with the smell of coffee wafting through the windows from the cafes nearby, it might be nice to wake up and take a walk as the sun comes up in the morning. We recommend going to one of the nearby coffee shops to feel like you’re sitting outside at a Swiss or Parisian cafe in Europe.
Check out Au Grain de Cafe if you are in the mood for tasty espresso, good vibes, warm surroundings, and a euro-centric atmosphere that is great for having a pasty, chatting with friends, or doing remote work on your laptop. We also love O’Café in the Old Village of Mont-Tremblant on the Chemin du Village for takeaway coffee.

As much as we love the ski season in Mont-Tremblant, we can’t help but look forward to warmer days, and although spring is often a mixed bag of temperatures, it does offer the first signs that the warmth we seek is on the horizon. This excitement over the beauty and promise that spring provides also has us celebrating in ways big and small.

This guide to Mont-Tremblant spring activities and events will help you plan the Canadian vacation you will never forget!
Spring Musical Atmosphere, March 25-April 16
Music is the accompaniment to all the best celebrations and our celebration of spring, even as snow still blankets the ground and the ski slopes are still open, takes place in the form of live musical performances on the Place Saint-Bernard! Spending your afternoons reveling in the sunny skies listening to some of the most talented people in our country play their hearts out promises to bring memories you will cherish forever! Every day will bring a different performer, so prepare to be surprised!
The Legends Classic, March 26
Ski season doesn’t officially end until approximately April 16th, so of course there will be some last minute celebration of winter and the Legends Classic is the perfect example! Offering a slalom competition that is open to everyone and divided into age groups (our favorite is the legends group for skiers from 60-85+ years of age, because they have forgotten more stuff than we will ever know about the sport and they can still FLY!) Everyone is invited to participate, which gives winners bragging rights when they head back home at the end of their Mont-Tremblant getaway!
Caribou Cup, April 1
It may be getting warmer but the skiing activities keep coming and the Caribou Cup combines a little bit of winter, a little bit of spring, and a whole lot of crazy fun in one extra special event! Dressed in their craziest outfits, skiers of all skill levels attempt to ski (or snowboard!) down the slope and OVER a large pit of icy cold water waiting at the bottom of the hill! Don your top hat, toss a feather boa around your neck and give it a try, if you dare! Skiers who fail will end up swimming in the nearly frozen waters, offering an experience akin to the Polar Bear Plunge that is popular in the states!
Burton El Nino / El Rigleto, April 8
We remember one particular snowy weekend day, we had taken our kids sledding and we noticed that one child (off in the distance) was using his sled as a snowboard and as we scoffed and giggled and the child came closer, we suddenly realized that strange youngster was our own baby boy! Back then, snowboarding wasn’t as popular as it is today, but events like Burton El Nino/El Rigleto is changing all that. This snowboarding event takes place on April 8 in 2023 and is designed to bring the thrill of the sport to the younger generation! Open to everyone and costing absolutely nothing, expert boarders will impart their knowledge and transfer their passion for snowboarders to any children who has a spark of interest of their own!
Easter in Mont-Tremblant, April 9
The final holiday of the ski season, Easter, offers a fun celebration for the smallest members of your traveling party! Offering interactive games, face painting, and a visit from the Easter Bunny who, of course, will be passing out chocolates (because what is Easter without chocolate?) parents will be excited to be able to get one last ski trip in without having to worry about disappointing their children!
Corona Party at the Summit, April 15
Isn’t it ironic how all our Mont-Tremblant spring activities and events tend to celebrate the world’s favorite winter sport? Every year the end of the season brings a bit of melancholy into our lives, but the Corona Party at the Summit, held on almost the last day of ski season, helps us get past the sadness! This party celebrates skiing, the upcoming seasons, and life in general, offering barbecue, live music, games, and all the Corona you can drink! It might be time to put your skis away for the year, but this fun fiesta will make you forget about your “loss” at least for a little while!

Every day will be filled with fun, music, and laughter and every evening and night will be filled with comfortable adventures you will remember forever when you choose Tremblant Living for your seasonal sanctuary. Reserve your favorite today!
