My friends and i are looking to go on a ski trip to Quebec in February 2010 and are wondering what are the best mountains in the area! We went to Tremblant last year and are looking for somewhere similar. Were all males between the ages 23-26 so want there to be a good nightlife as well. I’ve been unsuccessful with searching on the net because it is saturated with information on Tremblant and Mount St. Anne. Please help!!
I assume you want a big mountain, so your best choice is Le Massif du sud, or Le Massif de Charlevoix. Personally, I recommend Le Massif de Charlevoix. REALLY sick ski hill. Not the highest number of runs, but it does have a higher vertical drop than Tremblant or Mont St Anne. It isn’t the greatest for nightlife, but it is only a 1 hour drive from Quebec City. The skiing conditions are amazing, and the views are like nothing else you’ll see skiing in Quebec.
That being said, if you have great skiing where you live, and you just want nightlife and partying, then go to Bromont in the eastern townships, and go back to Montreal for the nightlife. Its only like a 40 minute drive, and the mountain is better than anything you’ll get out of any mountain south of Tremblant.
