Mountain Biking
at Mont-Tremblant

The Ville of Mont-Tremblant features five distinct areas, three of which provide access to mountain biking trails. Each has its own unique character and offers a variety of loops. Discover our favourite routes and must-ride trails to make the most of your stay.

Suggested Starting Points

For mountain biking, three access points are available.

Parking: 5100 montée Ryan
Level: Beginner–Intermediate
Duration: 1.5 to 2 hours
Direction: Deer Mountain
Trails: Labyrinthe, optional Zone Émiquilibre, Villa Bellevue, Les Pins Est, Les Pins Ouest, Jazz, Deer Mountain, Diable

Start on Labyrinthe, an easy, climb-free section that is perfect for warming up. Ride through the unique setting of a pine plantation. You can also have some fun in the Zone Émiquilibre, the perfect place to safely improve your agility. Return to Labyrinthe and follow Villa Bellevue, which runs alongside Le Diable golf course. Continue to the Les Pins intersection and turn left. A short, flowing descent takes you to Montée Ryan. Cross the road and climb Les Pins Ouest to the Jazz intersection. Here’s your challenge: make it to the top without stopping! Your reward is a long, flowing descent featuring jumps and berms through Deer Mountain and Diable. The latter offers views of the Diable River and takes you back to your starting point at the tourist information office.

Alternative options

  • If you are a beginner, simply skip the challenging climb on Jazz—you’ll have just as much fun.
  • To extend your ride, more adventurous riders can add Geai Bleu to the loop. The long, technical climb leads to a beautiful viewpoint, and the slightly technical descent back to Villa Bellevue is well worth the effort.

Must-dos and helpful tips

  • Take advantage of the repair station, equipped with everything you need to inflate your tires, a few tools and a bike-washing area.
  • If you are arriving from the south, take a short detour downtown and stop at CAFEO for an energizing juice or a packed lunch to enjoy on the trail.
  • Stop by and visit our friends at Quilicot, located along Route 117, and make sure you have a spare inner tube and everything you need to repair a flat tire.

Parking: 1000 Chemin des Voyageurs
Level: Intermediate
Duration: 2 hours
Direction: Chouette Lookout
Trails: Villageoise de Mont-Tremblant, Chouette Nord, Lynx, Écureuil, Chouette Sud, Pékan, left on Lynx, Chouette Nord, Villageoise de Mont-Tremblant

Parking in lots P1, P2, P3 and P4 is free, except during certain events.

Take La Villageoise-de-Mont-Tremblant paved bike path. After riding for 5 to 10 minutes from the resort, you will see Chouette on your left. This flowing trail, featuring a few climbs, descents and technical sections, leads to the P3 parking lot, where Lynx begins on your left. After crossing a stream, cross Chemin Duplessis. Follow the river along a beautiful, flowing trail with very little climbing. The trail occasionally rejoins the paved bike path, but continue in the same direction and follow the Lynx signs, which will sometimes be on your left and sometimes on your right.

At the end of Lynx, turn right onto the bike path, then immediately left onto Écureuil. The trail begins with an intermediate-level climb featuring roots and rocks. At Chemin des Quatre-Sommets, take the climb straight ahead. At the top of the hill, Écureuil continues on your left.

Continue climbing on Écureuil and enjoy the short descent—but not too fast! Turn right onto Chouette Sud, cross the road again and look for the trail entrance diagonally to your right. One final climb takes you to the lookout. Stop to admire the magnificent view and recharge before continuing downhill. Keep left to take Pékan, followed by Lynx. Cross Chemin Duplessis again and retrace your route back to the resort.

Alternative options

  • At the second section of Écureuil, more advanced riders may enjoy climbing Petite Crisse to connect with Chouette Sud.
  • If you have had enough by the time you reach Écureuil, stay on the trail for a quicker return to the resort.
  • Extend your ride by adding Boneyard, Cachée and Petite Cachée to your loop.
  • Start from the Village and add Truite, Sciotte, Petite Cachée and Boneyard before joining Écureuil.

Must-dos and helpful tips

  • Admire the breathtaking views of the region and its natural surroundings from the top of the mountain.
  • Take a refreshing break along the banks of the Diable River.
  • Attend one of the summer’s must-see events.
  • Finish your ride on the terrace at Le P’tit Caribou with a refreshing beer, grab a snack at Au Grain de café, or enjoy a delicious juice at Le Fluide Juice Bar.
  • Parking fees may apply during certain events.

Parking: 268 Rue du Couvent
Level: Intermediate and expert
Duration: 2 to 2.5 hours
Direction: Cachée and Gorge
Trails: Truite, Cachée, P’tite Cachée, Boneyard, Lynx, Jackrabbit Bridge, Grand Pic, Villa Bellevue, Geai Bleu, Gorge, Jackrabbit Bridge, Lynx, P’tite Cachée, Sciotte, Truite

Take Chemin du Village toward Tremblant Resort and turn right onto Chemin Séguin. After about five minutes, you will see the entrance to Truite on your left, just before Circuit Mont-Tremblant. This beautiful, relatively flat and flowing trail is perfect for warming up—and you will need it before tackling Cachée’s sustained, winding climb. On the other side, a flowing descent takes you through remarkable scenery. Keep left to take P’tite Cachée, then turn right onto the multi-use trail to connect with Boneyard. Once back on the multi-use trail, turn left and ride a short section of Lynx. Do not cross over to the northern section of the trail. Continue to the Jackrabbit Bridge, which crosses the Diable River. Turn right onto Grand Pic, followed by Villa Bellevue and a short section of Geai Bleu to reach Gorge. A few technical climbs featuring roots and rocks lead to the trail’s famous descent, one of the signature rides in the network. This one-way, expert-level descent features rock slabs, roots, jumps and berms.

Ride cautiously, especially on your first descent, so you can familiarize yourself with the obstacles.

Cross the Jackrabbit Bridge again for the return trip. Turn left onto Lynx, then continue onto P’tite Cachée instead of taking the bike path. After crossing the bridge over the Cachée River, take Sciotte and Truite to return to your starting point.

Alternative options

  • To shorten your loop, skip Cachée and continue along the multi-use trail to Lynx.
  • From Tremblant Resort, take the Villageoise de Mont-Tremblant, connect with Chouette Nord and Lynx, then reach Grand Pic via the Jackrabbit Bridge.
  • To extend your ride, continue along Villa Bellevue to the second entrance of Geai Bleu. You can also turn right onto Les Pins and explore the Deer Mountain sector, where several climbing and descending options are available. From there, either retrace your route along Les Pins or complete the loop via Diable, then return to Villa Bellevue through Labyrinthe.

Must-dos and helpful tips

  • Park near Cybercycle and stop by to discover the latest products and make sure you have everything you need for a great ride.
  • Bring your swimsuit and cool off at Lac Mercier on your way back.
  • Treat yourself to a delicious ice cream at Ocafé, grab a snack at La Sandwicherie, or enjoy a beer at Le Mercier Hôtel & Resto-Pub.

Bike Wash Stations

Bike showers are available at Tremblant Resort (1000 Chemin des Voyageurs):

  • Chalet des Voyageurs
  • P2 parking lot

A hose is available at the “4 coins” municipal parking lot (5100 Montée Ryan).

Riding Etiquette

  • Only ride on and in open trails.
  • Keep our trails clean; no littering.
  • Keep control of your bike and respect your limits.
  • Yield the way to pedestrians and those ahead of you. Be courteous to everyone.
  • Come prepared: water, food, spare tube, pump, know the map, let someone know where you are going.
  • Do not use trails on days of heavy rain or when ground is too wet. Riding a muddy trail can cause unnecessary trail widening and erosion.
  • Do not do unauthorized trail work: Unauthorized or illegal trail work may lead to environmental damage or even trail closure.
  • Always wear a helmet.
