Expansive parks and wildlife reserves, resorts, public markets, lively festivals, golf courses and microbreweries – the Laurentians never cease to amaze with their ever-evolving offering of summer activities! Here are some of the latest can’t-miss experiences.


A new activity at Mont Tremblant: summer skiing

Skiing and snowboarding aficionados will be thrilled to hear the good news: you can enjoy your favourite sport in the summer! It’s now possible to go summer skiing at Mont Tremblant on a brand new artificial surface dedicated to introducing visitors to boardsports. It's the perfect opportunity to teach youngsters the basics of this winter sport or to practise your turning and stopping skills with guides there to help you throughout your experience. And no need to schlepp your skis around in the summer: equipment rentals are available on site!

New amenities at Domaine Lafrance

If you've already had the pleasure of strolling through the orchard at Domaine Lafrance, in Saint-Joseph-du-Lac, you'll be happy to know that new facilities are now making the experience even better. First, the new Lafrance Bistro offers a farm-to-table experience highlighting products from Domaine Lafrance (including apples, of course)! Then, a brand new donut shop means you can fill up on home-baked donuts! With these new additions, Domaine Lafrance continues to share its passion for apple production and locally grown products.


The Nord restaurant at Strøm Nordic Spa

Spa-goers might be familiar with the Strøm Nordic Spa in Saint-Sauveur and the immersive restorative experience and amazing setting it provides. But this spa is also a place that foodies will appreciate! Nord, the restaurant on site, is now open to diners with or without access to the spa and offers seasonal Northern-inspired fare, highlighting locally cultivated products and the land’s Nordic character. Taking a cue from nature, the menu weds elegance and audacity with dishes that are at once stunning and sumptuous: a perfect pairing with the tranquil atmosphere at Strøm Nordic Spa!
