The Eastern Townships region offers an open invitation to skiers and snowboarders of all levels, no matter what experience they’re looking for. With its four mountains, each having its own personality, the region is the perfect meeting place for all those who have a passion for downhill thrills!

Destination Owl’s Head is surely among the ski centres offering the most beautiful panoramas of the region. Take the time to contemplate the view from the summit, whether it’s to admire Lake Memphremagog, the Saint-Benoît-du-Lac abbey or the mountains south of the border, such as Jay peak. Aside from the view, the centre will make everybody in your family happy with its 52 trails of which 15 are perfect for beginners. Working in close collaboration with the Fondation des sports adaptés, the ski hill also offers a program for people with reduced mobility.
Once known for its rustic charm, Destination Owl’s Head now offers a refreshed skiing experience. Over the years, the mountain has seen major improvements, including an upgraded snowmaking system and renovations to the main chalet. And if you’d like to stay a little longer, the rooms upstairs have also been renovated, offering a comfortable place to unwind and relax after a day on the slopes.

Are you a glade skiing adept? Head out to Sutton immediately! Forty-five percent of its 60 trails are set in glades, thus offering amateurs of the genre a vast playground with plenty of intense emotions and adrenalin rushes! Thanks to the 204 trail crossings spread out over the ski hill, you’ll be able to create your own unique course each time you ski down a slope. Mont Sutton has its own microclimate with lots of snow, making it the perfect destination for powder days as well! For those who like to work hard to deserve their way back down, there are three alpine touring trails which give you access to off-track slopes.
With your family or with your lover, everybody finds what they’re looking for. The mountain offers an authentic, friendly experience as much on the slopes as with their après-ski activities. Do you feel you might want to extend your stay? Choose among differents types of lodging near the mountain such as inns, B&Bs, condos, chalets, hotels, and youth hostel.

Located in the heart of a national park, Mont-Orford Ski Centre covers three mountains on four hillsides. Ski or ride its 62 trails including 18 glades offering daring challenges, and find yourself quickly back at the top of the slopes, thanks to seven chairlifts among them, a hybrid lift and panoramic gondolas. With a 589-meter drop, Mont-Orford proposes a diversified ski experience that will surely please beginners and experts alike while offering breathtaking landscapes overlooking lakes and the region’s mountain ranges. Are you ready to take on a new challenge? Try uphill skiing in the trails that have been designed for this activity.
Note to all winter activity amateurs: Right at the foot of the hill, inside the national park, you can access cross-country skiing, snowshoeing and fat-bike trails. Mont-Orford offers a truly outstanding outing!

If you wish to experience in one day, what you might experience over five, Bromont, montagne d’expériences is where you’ll want to ski this winter! With 123 trails covering its ski domain, among which 28 glades spread over 7 hillsides and its new and improved 9 snow parks, there’s no limit to your choices! Plus, with the hybrid chairlift (a six-seater and gondola lift), you’ll reach the main summit much faster and you'll be able to take a break in the beautiful ski chalet at the summit.
Do you feel you didn’t get enough out of your day? The centre’s 90 illuminated trails will allow you to extend your fun far into the evening. In fact, the mountain has the largest illuminated ski domain in North America.
Bromont, montagne d’expériences also hosts several events throughout the season, such as their thematic white nights and its après-ski evenings including outdoor shows at the foot of the slopes. Bromont’s turnkey offer, for loads of fun!
