Ski Quebec

I absolutely love to ski and I have skied all over the United States of America and Canada. When it comes to the best ski towns in Canada, I have to say that Quebec's Mont Grand Fonds, which is in a totally natural environment far from the suburbs and surrounded by all the snow covered evergreens. This Regional Park has it all, from luxurious lodging resorts that offer great amenities to the smaller more homey lodging. Whether you want fresh powder, great dinning and entertainment, or if you're just looking for some winter rest and relaxation Mont Grand Fonds has something for everyone.

Quebec's Mont Grand Fonds is located 150 kilometers outside of Quebec City and brings in epic snow conditions. This park is ideal for a winter sports getaway; this mountain offers great historical treasures along with a yearly snowfall of 650 centimeters of natural snow that makes for great skiing and snowboarding conditions all season long.

Mont Grand Fonds has a base elevation of 1,308 ft. with a summit elevation of 2,405 ft. the vertical drop is 1,095 ft. Mont Grand Fonds has an annual snowfall of 260 inches with 100 ski able acres. It offers one T-Bar lift and one Quad Chair and 14 trails of ski terrain. The longest run is 8,175 ft with a terrain park and half pipe. Snowboarders are welcome at Mont Grand Fonds.

This wonderful little village like resort offers a variety of services including great child care, lessons for the whole family, ski rentals, ski checks and all kinds of great lodging, dinning and entertainment. Mont Grand Fonds also has a great and experienced Ski Patrol that is top notch. If you are skiing Canada this winter, I highly recommend Mont Grand Fonds

While skiing Mont Grand Fonds please take note to the trail rating signs that have been posted for the skiers benefit, make sure that you are on a trail that is suitable to your skiing experience. You can obtain trail maps while getting your ski lift tickets. While riding the quad chair up the mountain to your desired trail take notice that Mont grand Fonds has the most amazing views of the snow covered mountain and valleys.

Mont Grand Fonds is just one of the 38 ski resorts that Quebec has to offer so whether you are looking for something smaller and less crowded like Mont Grand Fonds, or a larger more popular ski resort just pick from the 38 resorts Quebec has and have the best winter getaway ever!
