You are cordially invited to join us in celebrating the addition of a beautiful new trail rest area along the Mont-Tremblant section of the Trans Canada Trail on Sunday, August 7 at 11:00 am. The event will be held rain or shine so dress for weather. A short ceremony will be held, followed by a light snack. (See directions below)

The Halte des Trains-de-Neige is located on the P’tit Train du Nord linear park, a section of Quebec’s Trans Canada Trail that is popular year-round for recreation, sight-seeing and even commuting to work.
