Skiers and snowboarders are extremely well catered for in Tremblant, with intermediate and advanced levels particularly well catered for (see the Skill Levels section below).
However, there are still numerous beginners runs - including the dedicated beginners area 'Equilibre' - and highly regarded ski schools are available to develop your skills.

Whatever your skill level, the largest and most powerful snowmaking system in Canada (known as Avalanche) means you won't have an excuse for not being on the mountain!

Ski Skill Levels
| Beginners |
|
|
| With 29 green runs there is plenty to keep the beginner occupied. On the North Side, the aptly named 'Sissy-Schuss' delivers a pleasant journey on a wide trail through pine trees. The South Side has a dedicated beginners area (called Equilibre) and also the Nansen trail, which is the perfect beginners run, giving you that 'top of the world' feeling early on in your skiing career. | ||
| Intermediate |
|
|
| The choice expands quite rapidly once you’ve mastered the basics. For intermediates the easier blues are on the South Side, while the North Side has some tougher challenges. Franc Sud and Toboggan are challenging runs that allow intermediates a frightening glimpse of some advanced level Versant Soleil terrain. | ||
| Expert |
|
|
| Experts are challanged by The Edge and Versant Soleil areas. The Edge quad chair only serves expert/advanced trails, and only one trail is cut - other descents are through the trees. Versant Soleil is 80% expert, containing black and double-black runs through glades. | ||
